A prop cheque used in the first of Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, Batman Begins. After losing his parents in a tragic armed robbery, young billionaire Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) turns to a life of vigilantism and becomes the saviour of Gotham City, Batman.Seen in Bruce’s wallet as he plays the playboy billionaire at a Gotham City hotel, this cheque is printed on white paper and features Bruce Wayne’s name, address and telephone number, a series of codes and the details of Gotham City Bank. Spaces on the cheque allow for the addition of the day’s date and monetary amounts in US dollars. All of this is on a backdrop of an old map showing North and Central America. The left edge is perforated to allow a natural tear when in use, with the cheque individually numbered at the bottom. Only the front cheques in the book had this level of detail - other cheques within the book were given a stock number and were unperforated.In fantastic production-used condition, the cheque is presented in a stunning poster display featuring the film’s poster art and a description of the item.
