Hero screen-used Michael Clark Duncan "John Coffey" execution chair from The Green Mile....

Description

Hero screen-used Michael Clark Duncan "John Coffey" execution chair from The Green Mile. (Castle Rock Ent., 1994) (1) of only (4) "Old Sparky" electric chairs that were created for the film by Academy Award-winning production designer Terence Marsh. Each chair was crafted to serve a different technical purpose. This chair is unique from the others in that it was purpose-built for the "John Coffey" character at 7/8 scale to further the illusion of Coffey's huge physical size. Measuring 49 x 33 x 29 in., the wood, copper and steel chair features leather leg and wrist restraints and fleece padded iron hoop arm and leg braces. The chair was used exclusively in the film's climactic scene when Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan) is put to death. Includes (2) ominous black fabric hoods with single hole cut out. In fine condition. From the collection of director Frank Darabont, and comes with LOA. Special shipping arrangements will apply.
