Our expert's notes

A "Crusader Cop Busts Out" Chicago Herald and Examiner newspaper cover with framed degree from Brian De Palma's The Untouchables. Eliot Ness' (Kevin Costner) first attempted liquor raid failed and his humiliation made headline news. Ness read the paper when he first met Jim Malone (Sean Connery).

This lot consists of one newspaper cover and a framed "University Chicaginiensis" baccalaureate degree for Eliot Ness. The newspaper cover was previously displayed in Room 1989 of Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino Las Vegas. This lot exhibits discoloration, tearing, fold lines, and scratches on the frame. Dimensions: (largest) 16" x 11.75" x 0.75" (40.75 cm x 30 cm x 2 cm)
