Our expert's notes

Van Helsing’s (Hugh Jackman) hero pistol from Stephen Sommers’ fantasy-adventure film Van Helsing. Van Helsing carried his pistols throughout the film, using them to fight Mr Hyde (Robbie Coltrane), the Wolfman (Will Kemp), Frankenstein’s Monster (Shuler Hensley) and a sinister Transylvanian undertaker.

The entirely custom-made gun, modelled on a revolver, is cast from grey metal with a painted black tarnish and machined brass embellishments. The barrel incorporates etched Chinese symbols on both faces, while the black grips are made of resin and feature a Holy Cross painted with red and gold-coloured paint.

Intended to replicate the action of the Webley-Fosbery .455 revolver, the barrel can be pulled back to demonstrate the retracting motion. The cylinder rotates and contains five bullets that are fixed in place. It also has a functioning trigger and hammer mechanism. A brass cap fixed to the butt of the weapon twists off to reveal where a CO2 canister — used to activate the gun’s movements — was hidden during filming. It remains in a very good, untested condition. Dimensions: 33 cm x 5 cm x 18 cm (13” x 2” x 7”)
