Lot #223:

Hill Valley Sign from Back to the Future 2

First Time To Auction

Universal Pictures, 1989. Miniature futuristic Hill Valley billboard/sign used in the Sci-Fi Fantasy blockbuster. Constructed of cast resin, wood, and mixed-media components, expertly studio assembled, painted, and finished to appear as a hyper-realistic full-sized town billboard. The sign represents one of many billboards highlighting the future "Marty McFly" (Michael J. Fox) finds himself in during his time-traveling exploits. The sign is hand lettered and expertly studio distressed and theatrically spoiled to appear as having been weathered. The verso retains mounting brackets for affixing to posts in production. The sign comes mounted on a professionally built, removable acrylic post and wooden base. In production used very good to fine condition. Based on a concept by Rick Carter. Created by Bill Beck. From the personal collection of Bill Beck of ILM.
