Judge Doom's (Christopher Lloyd) sword cane from Robert Zemeckis' Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Doom carried his signature cane throughout the film, ultimately revealing its terrifying full capabilities when he pulled the handle to reveal a sword's blade during his climactic battle with Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins).
The winner of three Academy Awards®, Who Framed Roger Rabbit was the second of Lloyd's smash-hit collaborations with Zemeckis after the global box-office success of Back to the Future. For his performance as the villainous Doom, Lloyd received a Saturn Award® nomination for Best Supporting Actor. The film was later inducted into the Library of Congress' National Film Registry.
This cane originated from Elstree Studios prop dealer Nick Harrison. It comes in two parts: a solid metal sheath in black with a silver-color collar and ferrule, and a separate sword composed of a decorative handle and a metal blade. The resin handle features a snake grip and skull pommel painted silver to match the blade. This cane was previously displayed in Room 1858 of Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino Las Vegas. This lot exhibits chipped and flaked paint on the handle as well as discoloration on the blade. Dimensions: 37.5" x 2" x 2" (95.25 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm)
Blade was dulled by production.
