Eliot Ness' (Kevin Costner) treasury agent shield and family photos from Brian De Palma's historical crime drama The Untouchables. Ness showed his badge when identifying himself in the line of duty, and kept his family photos on his desk, first at home and then his office.

The badge is made of metal and pinned to a brown leather wallet. It reads "Treasury Agent" around the logo of the treasury department. The family photos are sepia-toned and feature Ness with his wife (Patricia Clarkson) and daughter (Kaitlin Montgomery). They are set in a folding photo holder. Both items have wear from production use, age and storage. They were previously attached to a display in Planet Hollywood, and there are sticky pads on the back of the photo holder, while the leather wallet has scratches and small holes where an adhesive patch was previously attached. Dimensions (shield open): 18.5 cm x 8.5 cm x 1 cm (7¼" x 3¼" x½"); (photo holder open): 12.5 cm x 20 cm x 1.5 cm (5" x 7¾" x½")

Estimate: £1,000 - 1,500 M

This item comes with a Propstore Certificate of Authenticity
