(Paramount, 1989) The Holy Grail, made of fiberglass/resin painted to resemble earthenware or terracotta, heavily weathered, with very bright gold leaf paint on the inside surface. In the final sequence of the film, Indy uses it to save his father, Henry Jones Sr. (played by Sean Connery) via its “Divine healing properties”. Made of very strong iberglass/resin, the prop was so designed to withstand the tumble down into the chasm that opened up beneath the Great Seal on the floor of the Grail Temple in the film. An icon of the film and the key plot device, this wonderful artifact is an important and instantly-recognizable piece of Hollywood history. Measures approx. 5½ inches tall. Originally acquired from Paul Robins, the prop maker who made this piece for the production.

Estimate $20,000 – $25,000
