Description
Two original "Joker" playing cards from the production of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight. Billionaire Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) has become a hero to his city as his alter-ego Batman, but has lost the woman he loves to aspiring DA Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart). The emergence of a new threat brings the two men together, but can justice prevail against a force so chaotic as The Joker (Heath Ledger) The Joker used playing cards in several sequences throughout the film, including scenes such as the murder of Judge Surillo (Nydia Rodriguez Terracina) with a car bomb, leaving hundreds of the Joker’s “calling cards” behind. Made of stiff card with a textured semi-gloss finish, the cards feature a jester and flying demons, with the word 'Joker' in the top left and bottom right corners. The cards are in excellent condition and are mounted in a custom frame (glass). Materials: Paper, Card. Item size - 3.54" x 2.36" x 0.04" (9cm x 6cm x 0.1cm) This item comes with a Prop Store - London Certificate of Authenticity.More from The Dark Knight (2008)
