GLADIATOR (2000) - Maximus Decimus Meridius' (Russell Crowe) Arena ArmourMaximus Decimus Meridius' (Russell Crowe) arena armour from Ridley Scott's Oscar®-winning historical epic Gladiator. Maximus was gifted his cuirass by Proximo (Oliver Reed) early in his gladiatorial career, and it became progressively more embellished as the film went on. He wore his embellished armour when he fought the Roman champion Tigris of Gaul (Sven-Ole Thorsen) in a Colosseum duel marked by the presence of four ferocious tigers.The armour is made of fibreglass covered in black leather exterior and black felt and suede interiors. Its central feature is a cuirass, which comprises a breastplate and a backplate. At the base of each plate hang cingulum militare, featuring several leather straps with metal detailing. The chest and back plates connect via dual riveted shoulder straps - one wide, the other narrow - and buckle straps that sit laterally under each arm. The cuirass exhibits moulded abdominal, pectoral and trapezius muscles. Completing the ensemble is a left shoulder plate, on the underside of which is an adjustable leather buckle strap.The breastplate displays several white metal embellishments: two rampant horses, two griffins, two laurel branches, a cypress tree, and Maximus' wife and son. The shoulder plate displays further embellishments, with a horticultural theme. Costume designer Janty Yates stated that it was Crowe's idea to add icons whenever his character won gladiatorial contests.A Robert Alsopp & Associates label is adhered to the inside of the breastplate. The armour has been intentionally distressed to look well used in battle, and has additional wear from age and use, including scuffing. It is displayed on a black custom-made wood-and-metal display stand.Estimate: £50,000 - 100,000 M View all lots from GLADIATOR (2000)Bidding for this lot will end on Thursday, November 9th.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR (2016) - Iron Man's (Robert Downey Jr.) Hero Light-up Mark 46 HelmetIron Man's (Robert Downey Jr.) hero light-up helmet from Anthony and Joe Russo's superhero sequel Captain America: Civil War. Tony Stark, aka Iron Man, wore his helmet as part of his Iron Man Mark 46 armour during the climactic battle at Leipzig-Halle Airport, where Stark and his team of allies confronted Captain America (Chris Evans) and his faction of Avengers. The MK46 helmet was the first design since Jon Favreau's 2008 Iron Man to feature a gold-chrome and electroplated finish. Iron Man helmets featuring in the Marvel Universe films in between these were simply painted gold. Only the hero helmets in this film had this gold chrome; the stunt versions were finished with gold paint.This helmet is made primarily of electroplated fibreglass painted metallic red with a gold-chrome faceplate and silver-chrome segments in the cheek and ear areas. Production intentionally dulled the gold-chrome faceplate so the helmet would not be overly reflective on camera. The eyes, set slightly back in the helmet with an opening below each for airflow and to allow the wearer to see, are made of frosted acrylic, with LEDs that illuminate them in a blue-white colour. Its interior features foam padding, wiring secured under black tape where it meets the eyes, a battery pack connected to this wiring via a plug system so it can be disconnected, a laminated sticker that reads "RDJ HERO" and a "1" handwritten in silver marker pen. The left interior cheek displays the stamping, "2507_SPTNIK_Mk46/ Helmet_CheekSlim_MIR/ L/R", while the same stamping is repeated inside the right cheek but in reverse. The helmet's golden faceplate is held in place by magnets and can be entirely removed, along with the front under-chin plate and back neck rim, allowing the user to put on and take off the helmet comfortably. Faint scratches are present over the faceplate from where production used fine sandpaper to dull the chrome finish.

BATMAN FOREVER (1995) - Batman's (Val Kilmer) Panther SuitBatman's (Val Kilmer) panther suit from Joel Schumacher's Batman Forever. Batman wore his black "Panther Suit" earlier in the film before it was destroyed and he switched to the silver-colour "Sonar Suit."The panther suit took some influence from the earlier Burton-era Batsuits, while also integrating Schumacher's unique vision of the iconic Batsuit, with the director comparing the anatomically correct armour to ancient Greek statues. Batman Forever held the title of the all-time highest opening-weekend gross for two years and the largest opening weekend of a Warner Bros. film for six years.This lot consists of a black foam rubber bat-shaped cowl and matching bodysuit over a neoprene base mounted to a custom-made mannequin display; a heavy rubber latex cape; a pair of leather gloves with resin fins attached by metal pins; and a pair of leather boots. A zipper runs along the back of the bodysuit, and the back of the cowl features a square of self-fastener. The chest features two holes in the foam where the cape was initially bolted in with metal screws. The chest emblem and utility belt are made of resin.The display form is attached to a rigid foam base designed to resemble stone. A replica codpiece was added to complete the display. The cape underwent sympathetic restoration to address tears in its shoulders and sides, and is now backed with supporting strips. This lot exhibits grime and foam fragility from wear and age.

The post-war C.B., Great War D.S.C. group of eleven awarded to Vice-Admiral M. H. A. Kelsey, Royal Navy, a veteran of Dogger Bank and Jutland, who went on to command the cruiser Naiad (1940-42) and battleship Warspite (1944), the latter commissions including extensive action in the Mediterranean and off Normandy, including his unique order in the annals of Naval gunnery on D-Day, 6 June 1944: ‘Fifty rounds 15-inch rapid fire’ The Most Honourable Order of The Bath, C.B. (Military) Companion’s neck badge, silver-gilt and enamel; Distinguished Service Cross, G.V.R., hallmarks for London 1920; 1914-15 Star (S. Lt. M. H. A.

Kelsey, R.N.); 1939-45 Star; Atlantic Star; Africa Star; Defence and War Medals, with M.I.D. oak leaf; Coronation 1937, unnamed as issued, mounted as worn, generally very fine and better (11) £5,000-£6,000 --- Provenance: R. C. Witte Collection, Dix Noonan Webb, December 2007. C.B. London Gazette 10 June 1948. D.S.C. London Gazette 11 June 1919: ‘For distinguished services whilst in command of a destroyer.’ Marcel Harcourt Attwood Kelsey was born in February 1894 and attended Eastman’s, Winchester prior to entering the Royal Navy as a Naval Cadet in January 1907. Appointed Midshipman in the cruiser Good Hope in September 1911, he was advanced to Sub. Lieutenant in September 1914, while serving in Dryad. Then, in January 1915, he joined the destroyer Defender, in which ship he was present at Dogger Bank before removing to another destroyer, the Obdurate, in April 1916 - on this occasion as a newly promoted Lieutenant and “Jimmy the One”. A fellow officer in Obdurate later described Kelsey as ‘tall, blond and intrepid’, and ‘a polished product of the new Navy, trained to a strong sense of active duty’ - in point of fact ‘[h]e kept the ship’s company on the hop and, although they groused at times, he soon had them worked up to a fair state of war efficiency’. And this was fortuitous, for the Obdurate had a busy time at Jutland, participating in the 13th Destroyer Flotilla’s attack on German destroyers in the afternoon of 31 May 1916, during which she was hit by a 4.1-inch shell from the Regensburg, in addition to suffering a ‘burst’ 4-inch gun of her own. Nonetheless, she managed to stop and pick up three survivors from the Ardent. Kelsey removed to the Valentine in November 1917, in which ship he remained actively employed until the War’s end, a period that witnessed at least one action with a U-Boat patrol and, ultimately, the award of his D.S.C. Advanced to Commander in June 1930 and to Captain in December 1936, he was serving at the Admiralty as Deputy Director of Personnel by the renewal of hostilities. In April 1940, however, he was given command of the cruiser Naiad, in which capacity he would see a great deal of action in the Mediterranean, and serve on the staff of Rear-Admirals Vian and King, in addition to acting at other times as S.N.O. of 15th Cruiser Squadron. Naiad was heavily employed in the operations leading to the evacuation of Greece and Crete in April-May 1941, and took several hits off the latter place on 22 May: ‘The light cruiser Naiad had two turrets put out of action, and near misses caused several of her compartments to be flooded and her speed to be reduced to 17 or 18 knots. In the course of ten minutes there were 36 misses, and during a period of two hours 181 bombs were counted. Only two of her turrets remained in action ... ’ Added to which, she lost 7 men killed and a further 31 wounded. Having then fought an engagement with a French destroyer off Beirut, the Naiad was involved in several further engagements in December 1941, among them the action off Bardia, in which the Barham was lost, and the bombardment of Derna. In January 1942, Kelsey was appointed Commodore at Freetown, but he returned to sea with command of the battleship Warspite in March 1944, a commission that would witness significant support being lent to the Normandy landings, not least on D-Day itself, when she was one of the very first ships to engage the enemy ashore, her 15-inch broadsides silencing the enemy coastal batteries at Benerville and Villerville - the latter target was treated to no less than 73 rounds of 15-inch, 9 of them resulting in direct hits. A few days later, off the “Gold” area, Kelsey had occasion to issue his famous command: ‘Fifty rounds 15-inch rapid fire’, an ‘order which must be unique in the annals of British naval gunnery’. Unsurprisingly, his target, a large concentration of enemy troops and tanks hidden in woodland, rapidly dispersed! That evening, the Warspite returned to Portsmouth to embark still more ammunition, following which she journeyed to Rosyth to replace her worn guns - this entailing the first passage of the Dover Straits by a capital ship since the famous ‘Channel Dash’ back in 1942. The German batteries on ‘the whole French coast were ablaze with their gun flashes’, luckily, however, without effect. Back off Brest by late August, Kelsey got his new guns into action on behalf of the Americans, Warspite firing 147 rounds of 15-inch high explosive, and 66 armour-piercing shells, on the 25 alone - she, too, was subjected to heavy fire from enemy batteries, but was only hit by a few shell splinters. In the following month, off Le Havre, she engaged enemy gun positions at her maximum range of 32,000 yards, assisted by our aircraft spotting for her, and wiped out a troublesome 6.7-inch battery. Better still, she lent valuable assistance to the Royal Marines during the subsequent Walcheren operations, but this proved to be the last time her 15-inch guns were fired in anger, and Kelsey came ashore in early 1945 to take up the post of Commodore, Chatham. He had, meanwhile, been Mentioned in Despatches for ‘Neptune’ (London Gazette 28 November 1944 refers). Advanced to Rear-Admiral in January 1946, and awarded the C.B. in the Birthday Honours List of 1948, he was placed on the Retired List in the rank of Vice-Admiral in the following year. His last post had been as Flag Officer, Malta, where he oversaw the clearing of Valetta Harbour, in addition to boarding operations in connection with immigrant ships trying to run the blockade of Palestine. The Admiral died in 1965. Sold with a fine run of original ship’s ‘flimsies’ 1911-40 (approximately 40).

Curtis, Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve, who commanded Assault Group J4 during Operation Neptune Distinguished Service Cross, G.VI.R., the reverse officially dated ‘1944’ and privately engraved, ‘Commander L. R. Curtis, R.N.V.R., Ouistreham, June 6th’; 1939-45 Star; Atlantic Star, 1 clasp, France and Germany; Defence and War Medals, with M.I.D. oak leaf, mounted as worn, lacquered, good very fine (5) £1,000-£1,400 --- Provenance: Dix Noonan Webb, December 2006. D.S.C. London Gazette 28 November 1944. M.I.D. London Gazette 8 June 1944. Leonard Rupert Curtis was appointed a Temporary Sub Lieutenant in the “Wavy Navy” in January 1942. Advanced to Lieutenant in April 1942, he joined the landing craft training base Copra in September 1943, which appointment culminated in his appointment to the command of Assault Group J4 on D-Day, a unit comprising the 200th and 201st L.C.I. (S.) Flotillas which landed at “Queen Red” and “Queen White” beaches near Ouistreham. Curtis appears in the acknowledgements of numerous D-Day histories, but no-one was closer to him at the initial landing stage than Lord Lovat, who ‘borrowed’ his bunk during the Channel crossing: ‘The paling stars spelt out ‘Invasion’. It was blowing half a gale and getting light enough to see Curtis, now with his steel helmet on. He had reddish hair and a serious face. A quiet-spoken, dependable man, keenly aware of the importance of the occasion. Rupert was to be awarded the D.S.C. for the work he did that day. I imagine he felt lonely on the crossing: twenty-two boats pitching in line ahead; seven hours of eye-strain darkness, keeping station in rough weather up the swept passage through the minefields. “Twenty miles from the coast and twelve to lowering point,” he shouted against the wind. I nodded respectfully, trying a shivering smile with eyes on the duffle coat. The navigator had done his job well - on course and ahead of the clock. Nautical twilight was past and the sea changing colour to oystershell in the grey dawn when the Aldis lamp blinked on our port bow: “Good morning, Commandos, and the best of British luck.” Curtis and his yeoman spelt out the signal. We made a suitable reply: “Thanks. Think we are going to bloody well need it.” Rupert ran up the battle ensign. War was becoming personal again ... Half-seen through palls of smoke, boats were burning to our left front ... Curtis made a slight alteration of course to starboard. A tank landing-craft with damaged steering came limping back through the flotilla. The helmsman had a bandage round his head and there were dead men on board, but he gave us the V sign and shouted something as the unwieldly craft went by. Spouts of water splashed a pattern of falling shells. Among the off-shore obstacles - heavy poles and hedgehog pyramids with Teller mines attached - we started to take direct hits. Curtis picked his spot to land, increased speed and headed for the widest gap, the arrowhead formation closing on either side. The quiet orders - a tonic from the ridge - raised everybody’s game: “Amidships. Steady as she goes.” The German batteries mistakenly used armour-piercing ammunition in preference to high explosive and bursting shrapnel. Derek’s landing brows were shot away and beyond him Ryan Price’s boat went up with a roar. Max had an unpleasant experience when a shell went through his four petrol tanks without exploding. Rear headquarters got away with minor casualties. Our command ship took two shells in the stern. It happened in the last hundred yards. There was no time to look back. The impact must have swung us round for two boats, Max’s and mine, touched down side by side. Each carried four thousand gallons of high-octane fuel in non-sealing tanks aft of the bridge. Had Max blown-up we would have gone with him. Five launches out of twenty-two were knocked out, but the water was not deep and Commandos got ashore wading; a few men went wading in the shell craters’ (Lovat’s March Past refers). Curtis attained the rank of Acting Commander in April 1945 and was released from the Active List in April 1946.

In February 1940 he began a two-year posting in Faulknor, leader of the 8th Destroyer Flotilla, engaged on patrols in the North Sea, off the coast of Norway, and then to Gibraltar as part of Force H, escorting warships and convoys to Malta. In February 1942, following a refit at Southampton, Faulknor escorted convoy PQ9 to Murmansk. In April 1942, Dalglish commenced an 18-month appointment on the staff of the gunnery school at Chatham. Having been promoted to Lieutenant-Commander, Dalglish was appointed to the cruiser Swiftsure in September 1943. He served in this ship for the rest of the war, at home and in the Mediterranean, before sailing for the Far East in October 1944, where Swiftsure took part in Operation Iceberg which lasted until the end of May 1945, when the last Japanese resistance on Okinawa was crushed. Following an appointment in April 1947 as Staff Officer Force T, the naval component of the British occupation force in Japan, Dalglish was appointed Staff Gunnery Officer of the 5th Cruiser Squadron at Hong Kong and serving in Sussex. After his promotion to Commander in June 1948, he successfully applied to remain in Hong Kong as Fleet Gunnery Officer on the staff of Admiral Alec Madden. In April 1949, Admiral Madden decided to visit Shanghai for St George’s Day, and he and his staff embarked in the cruiser London. At this time civil war was raging between the Communists and the Nationalists. The capital of Nationalist China was Chungking, which lay on the upper Yangtze. On 20 April the frigate Amethyst was proceeding upstream to relieve another ship as guard-ship there. As she approached Chungking, about 140 miles upstream from Shanghai, she suddenly came under heavy fire from communist batteries on the north bank. One of the first shots struck the bridge, badly injuring the captain and helmsman. Amethyst then went aground and while thus immobilised was hit several more times, suffering 17 killed and 10 wounded. Some of the ship’s company, including the wounded, were evacuated to the south and an uneasy truce developed. Admiral Madden decided that London should go to the assistance of Amethyst and, on the 21st, advanced upstream with her battle ensigns flying. As a staff officer, Dalglish had no particular duties but was assigned to “A” turret where, in his own words, ‘I had precisely nothing to do but to sit at the back of the gunhouse talking with the Ordnance Artificer’. Long before reaching Amethyst, London came under heavy fire, ‘the Communists opened fire at a range of less than a mile with solid armour-piercing (anti-tank) bullets and larger high explosive shells from field guns. London was a very big ship and difficult to miss at that close range, the former penetrated the ship like butter and the latter wreaked terrible damage... London opened fire with everything and I have little doubt that our 8-inch, 4-inch and pom-pom gunfire caused havoc ashore... Poor London was hit over 250 times! The turret I was in was put out of action by armour-piercing bullets severing the electric cables and then an H.E. hit on the turret roof flipped off one of the three armour plates and we were open to the sky! We were achieving nothing for Amethyst so we eventually turned in the river and retreated, with nineteen dead and many more wounded.’ London returned to the U.K. and was eventually scrapped. Admiral Madden and his staff, meanwhile, transferred to the cruiser Belfast, and returned to Hong Kong. Soon after, Dalglish returned to the U.K. and was cheered to receive news during the voyage of Amethyst’s successful escape from the Yangtze. On his return from the Far East Dalglish had a period ashore, first attending the Joint Services Staff Course, then instructing the Sub-Lieutenant courses at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich. Towards the end of 1952, he was selected to be Executive Officer of the Royal Yacht which was still under construction on the Clyde. First, however, he had to have experience in command and, for the first three months of 1953, he commanded the destroyer Aisne. He took up his appointment to the Royal Yacht (subsequently named Britannia) on 8 April 1953. He and the other officers supervised the final stages of construction, fitting out and selection of the ratings - it was a sought after posting, with over 1,000 applicants for just 200 vacancies. The new company then had to be trained in the peculiarities of service in a Royal Yacht - for example, orders had to be given and executed silently. Dalglish was gratified to learn that the Queen would tour the Commonwealth in early 1954 in the liner Gothic and that the Flag Officer Royal Yachts would accompany her which meant that Dalglish would be the first (acting) Captain of the Britannia. On 14 April 1954, Prince Charles and Princess Anne embarked, escorted by various members of the royal household, and Britannia sailed for Malta, where she arrived on 22 April. The Flag Officer and other officers from Gothic took up their appointments, and Dalglish reverted to his role as Executive Officer. Britannia then sailed for Tobruk where, on 1 May, the Queen and Prince Philip embarked for the final stage of their journey. The following day, the Mediterranean Fleet, commanded by Lord Mountbatten, executed an impressive manoeuvre, steaming past Britannia at 25 knots at a distance of only 300 to 400 yards. On 15 May Britannia conveyed the Queen up the Thames to the Pool of London, right by the Tower. It was a grand occasion, with hundreds of thousands of spectators, hundreds of boats crammed with people, everyone cheering and waving and sirens hooting. Dalglish was still aboard Britannia for the July/August trip to Canada but, having been promoted to Captain in June 1954, left the Yacht in October. He received further recognition for his services to the roy...

The Royal Humane Society Medal in Silver, with scarce Second Award Clasp awarded to Acting Captain H. Hopper, Royal Navy, who was awarded a D.S.O. in the Second World War Royal Humane Society, small silver medal (successful) (Sub Lieut. H. G. Hopper, R.N.15 July 1918) with Second Award Bar, dated ‘8th Aug. 1922’, with integral top silver riband buckle, good very fine £600-£800 --- R.H.S. Silver Medal ‘Sub-Lieutenant Humfrey Hopper, R.N., H.M.S. Mallow.’ (Case No. 44,656) ‘On the night of the 14th July, 1918, the French steamship Djemnah, with troops on board, was torpedoed in the Mediterranean, and sank in two minutes. H.M.S. Mallow, which was in the vicinity, lowered and sent away all her boats to pick up survivors, there being nothing left in the ship in the early morning except the Carley rafts. These, when put overboard were found to be slow and unhandy in the choppy sea when picking up isolated survivors, and were finally abandoned. Seeing this, Sub-Lieut. Hopper stripped and went overboard several times, swimming out to the men who were supporting themselves on small pieces of wreckage in the last stage of exhaustion and bringing them to the ship, where they were got on board. In this way at least six lives were saved whom it would otherwise have been impossible to reach.’ R.H.S. Silver Clasp ‘Lieutenant Humfrey G. Hopper, R.N., H.M.S. Raleigh’ (Case No. 46,560A) ‘About 3.30 p.m. on the 8th August, 1922, H.M.S. Raleigh stranded near Armour Point, Forteau Bay, on the coast of Labrador, a dense fog prevailing at the time. With a view to saving those on board, a cutter was lowered in order to get a line ashore and thus establish communication with the ship. Lieut. Hopper, went into the cutter, but seeing that they might be unable to get ashore owing to the reefs, over which heavy seas were breaking, he took a line, and leaping into the sea near the ship swam to the reefs and succeeded in getting through the breakers, and then made his way through the surf to the rocks and landing the line by which over 700 officers and men with the aid of rafts were safely landed. There was a strong wind with heavy sea and thick fog, the water being very cold.’ Humfrey Greenwood Hopper was born on 25 November 1898. He was appointed an Acting Sub-Lieutenant in the Royal Navy on 15 March 1917 and was confirmed in that rank in November 1917. He served on H.M.S. Glorious, October 1916-June 1917, after which he served on H.M.S. Mallow, June 1917-December 1918. He was on the latter ship when it went to the assistance of the French liner Djemnah which was in a convoy, carrying a large number of troops across the Mediterranean, when she was torpedoed by a German submarine on the night of 14/15 July 1917. The ship sank with the loss of 442 lives. Sub-Lieutenant Hopper was awarded the R.H.S. Medal in Silver for his brave actions in going to the aid of several exhausted French soldiers in the water. Hopper was promoted to Lieutenant in November 1919 and Lieutenant Commander in November 1927. He was awarded a Clasp to the R.H.S. Medal in 1922 when his ship - H.M.S. Raleigh, ran aground in thick fog and became a total wreck off Point Armour, on the coast of Labrador. Hopper swam with a line to the shore, through dangerous breaking seas, and in doing so, was instrumental in preserving the lives of some 700 men of the ship’s complement. Ten lives were lost in the accident. During the Second World War as Acting Captain of H.M.S. St. Tudno, he was awarded the Distinguished Service Order (London Gazette 19 December 1944) for his services in minesweeping in the Scheldt; mentioned in despatches (London Gazette 4 September 1945) for Operation Fireball - minesweeping work in clearing a passage to Rotterdam and Yjmuiden, thereby making possible a swift relief of Holland; he was also awarded the Belgian Order of Leopold and Croix de Guerre for services in the liberation of Belgium. Hopper was placed on the Retired List with the rank of Commander in 1948. Sold with a quantity of copied research including copied service papers and reports on the rescues, with a photograph of the stranded H.M.S. Raleigh.
