Our expert's notes

A Halloween Town zombie bass player stop-motion puppet from Henry Selick’s stop-motion musical The Nightmare Before Christmas. The Halloween Town band played music throughout the film, and were friends of Jack Skellington. The bass player wasn’t much for words, but had a talking head inside his bass.

The puppet is made of foam over a metal animation armature, and is wearing a party hat which Halloween Town citizens wore on Christmas Eve, and when the band played during “Sally’s Song ”. The puppet has a small head with a rotund body, long arms, short legs, and very large feet. Its foam body is cast with a black-striped burgundy suit with a white button-up shirt, a spider-shaped bowtie and white shoes.

The puppet stands freely on his own two feet, with flat metal supports that are embedded within each foot. Showing wear to the foam which has hardened and cracked due to age, the bass player’s hands have become brittle. Although fragile, the puppet remains in fine condition. Dimensions: 19 cm x 14 cm x 26.5 cm (7 ½” x 5 ½” x 10 ½”)

£4,000 - 6,000
