Robin Hood's (Kevin Costner) screen-matched longbow from Kevin Reynolds' Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Robin Hood, a legendary archer, wielded his signature bow against the forces of the Sheriff of Nottingham (Alan Rickman). Details in the woodgrain of this bow screen-match to the climactic sequence where Hood helped sneak weapons into Nottingham's castle to break free the captured outlaws.

Prince of Thieves was among the greatest success stories of 1991, reaching No. 2 at the global box office and earning Academy Award®, Grammy®, and BAFTA® nominations the following year. In addition to wielding it in the film, Robin also appeared with his signature bow throughout the promotional campaign, including in posters and the popular teaser trailer.

This custom-made lightweight longbow features wood limbs with a leatherette grip, a notched cord string, and string grooves blackened at the ends by production. The bow exhibits minor scuffing to the wood finish and minor fraying to the string from production use and handling. This longbow is designed as a prop, and its use is therefore not recommended. Dimensions: 76" x 8" x 2" (193.25 cm x 20.5 cm x 5.25 cm)
