A full-size Deepcore hatch frame and sea plant from James Cameron's The Abyss. Platform designer Dr. Lindsey Brigman (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio) traveled with the SEAL team to the experimental underwater drilling platform, Deepcore, after the US government sent the team to investigate and salvage the Ohio-class submarine that sank after its encounter with an unidentified submerged object.

This lot consists of one full-size fiberglass hatch frame of the style seen in the center ceiling of every interior module set painted gray on top, and one "crinoid" sea fan plant made of latex and plaster. The plant features fern-like protrusions and a weighted plaster base which allowed it and others to be sprinkled around the underwater seafloor set, accurately representing some of the only lifeforms that live at abyssal depths. This lot exhibits chipped paint, discoloration, cracks in the fiberglass and a build-up of grime. Dimensions: (largest) 60.5" x 60.5" x 9" (153.75 cm x 153.75 cm x 23 cm)

Special shipping required; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.
