Description

The original, remaining Gargoyle from atop Gotham Cathedral. Clearly visable as the Jokers hat stand in the final scenes of the movie. There are two Gargoyles - the other is tied to the Jokers leg, and causes him to fall to his death. Iconic, unique and beautiful. A rare piece of Bat-history Batman '89 changed the look and feel of superhero movies. The set was designed by gothic visionary Anton Furst and won the picture its only Academy Award. Furst Later killed himself by jumping from a tall building. This thing is heavy! takes two to lift it. Hand sculpted in plaster on a wire frame. More photos of the Gargoyle, and the story of where I got it can be found at: http://www.bugwriters.blogspot.com/
