After being accidentally resurrected from the bottom of Crystal Lake, Jason wore his shirt throughout the film as part of his slime-drenched costume, while hunting a group of high-school graduates on a cruise ship to New York. This example is one of three shirts worn by Kane Hodder during the production. It screen-matches to an episode of The Arsenio Hall Show in July 1989, when Jason appeared as a silent guest to promote the film. It matches through the intentional distress and markings on the collar and pockets.The Levi's chambray grey cotton shirt is marked as a size "XXL" and displays heavy intentional distressing with several rips and holes. The colour has faded over time, creating a washed-out appearance.Additional Provenance:This lot comes from the personal collection of Friday the 13th collector and historian Mario Kirner.This lot comes from the Friday the 13th Props Museum collection of Mario Kirner.

JASON X (2001) - Jason Voorhees' (Kane Hodder) Screen-matched Hockey MaskJason Voorhees' (Kane Hodder) screen-matched hockey mask from James Isaac's slasher sequel Jason X. Four hundred and fifty-five years after being captured and cryogenically frozen by the US government, Jason was discovered by a group of students on a scientific field trip. Jason wore his mask while hunting down the students one by one, after awakening on their spaceship. This mask matches the one seen on screen for the majority of the film, through the positioning of its slashes, scratches and markings. The tenth instalment in the Friday The 13th series marked the first time the mask design had no direct lineage to the previous masks. This version has a more angular appearance and was made from fibreglass rather than the vacuum-formed plastic technique used for previous iterations. The hockey mask features leather straps made from repurposed belts and has remnants of foam padding on the interior. It is spray-painted yellow, with a red triangle emblem painted on the forehead, and features intentional distressing, including a deep slash across the forehead and damage to the edge of the mask near the left cheek. There are remnants of glue on the interior, while the metal buckle on the leather straps exhibits rusting due to age.

HMS KELLY BATTLE OF NORWAY GROUP TO CLARK AB RN1939/45 Star, Atlantic Star, Defence Medal, War Medal, LSGC = J/87432 CH, B22521 A E Clark AB (official correction to 'ar' in Clark), Imperial Service Medal = Albert Edward ClarkCondition GVFAlbert Edward Clark was born in Tottenham, London in 1902. He joined the Royal Navy in April 1918.He joined HMS Kelly just as she was leaving the dry dock. Kelly was involved in one of the most famous actions of WW2. Captained by Louis Mountbatten, she took part in the battle of Norway in 1940. On the night of 9th / 10th May, she was torpedoed by E Boat S31. Due to the damage inflicted, Kelly was unable to operate under her own steam. She was towed back to Port by the tug Great Emperor. During the journey, which took four days, the ship was repeatedly attacked by E boats and by the Luftwaffe. The film 'In Which We Serve' starring Noel Coward was based on the story of HMS Kelly. It seems that Clark was possibly wounded during the action as he never again served on board a ship or a shore establishment. After leaving the Kelly, the next entry on his papers shows he was discharged on 8th January 1944. Which accounts for his Loyal Service badge. For his service during WW2, he was awarded the 1939 to 45 Star, Atlantic Star, Defence Medal and end of War. The medals are in their original box with entailment slip. He was also awarded the Fleet reserve LSGC and a EII Imperial Service Medal, which comes with award certificate and box. The group comes with a number of photographs once showing him wearing a Bosnian whistle which is present with the group,  pass for HMS Kelly. Three Neptune scrolls named to Clark are also included.A  reformed character to get the LSGC, he was imprisoned for being AWOL in 1921 and punished in 1926, having his wages forfeited! The following report by Lord Louis Mountbatten, Captain (D); 5th Destroyer Flotilla, was submitted to the Admiralty on the 20th May 1940: "I had to decide how long to remain hunting this submarine without prejudicing my chance of rejoining the BIRMINGHAM before she made contact with the enemy. I knew from the aircraft sighting report that we were very near the position of this submarine and felt she should be destroyed if time permitted. When, however, at 2018/9 [9th May] an enemy report of four minelayers, three destroyers and one torpedo boat was received from aircraft, I immediately proceeded with the KANDAHAR at 32 knots to rejoin the BIRMINGHAM, who was only just in sight on the horizon and signalled that she had increased to 28 knots. At 2050/9 a destroyer was sighted on the horizon. She turned out to be the BULLDOG, who requested permission to join me, having lost her own force to the Northward after being ordered to sink a floating mine. She came in astern and was endeavouring to catch up. At 2052/9 a Dornier was sighted and fire opened.8. The visibility was fairly good to the Eastward and very good to the Westward, but hazy to the Northward. At about 2230/9 the visibility to port (i.e. to the Northward) became very bad, a bank of mist having formed. At 2242 I ordered speed to be reduced from 32 to 28 knots to allow the BULLDOG to catch up. At 2244 a blurred object was sighted by a number (including myself), about three to four cables on the port beam in the mist, and almost simultaneously I saw the track of a torpedo pass under the bridge.9. After an appreciable delay the torpedo exploded and the ship took up a list of some 12 to 13 degrees to starboard. Details of the damage and the immediate steps which were taken to control it are given in Appendix I.10. With the flames, smoke and escaping steam nothing more was seen of our assailant, nor of the KANDAHAR, who had been close astern. The BULLDOG, however, had been a mile astern and soon appeared in the gloom. I ordered her to drop depth charges to the Northward, being uncertain at this time in my own mind whether our assailant had beena submarine or a Motor Torpedo Boat. I later established beyond doubt that it was at least one, if not two, Motor Torpedo Boats, and since they were never in sight until after they had fired I feel sure that the Dornier we had been firing at had been directing them behind the fog bank by W/T.11. The BULLDOG obtained a good contact and fired a pattern, after which she returned to our aid. At this moment a large vessel appeared out of the fog at high speed, and just missed the BULLDOG. It is presumed that this was the BIRMINGHAM, as she made the "VF" reply on passing.12. The BULLDOG proceeded to take me in tow in the fog which had now become very thick. I consider that the handling of the BULLDOG was a supreme display of seamanship and ship-handling, in that she had the KELLY in tow and was proceeding ahead by 2340/9 less than one hour after the explosion and during which she had carried out a submarine hunt. (For this I consider the greatest credit to be due to her Commanding 0fficer, Lieutenant Commander J.P. Wisden).13. With an excessive bow trim and heavy list, and with the starboard gunwhale awash the KELLY was extremely cumbersome in tow but it was possible to bring hand steering into use, which was of some slight help. HMS Kelly under tow in the North Sea, as seen by one of the Coastal Command aircraft that went to her assistance 11th May 194014. At about 0010/10 [10th May] the noise of a powerful internal combustion engine was heard, and almost immediately a very large white Motor Torpedo Boat appeared out of the fogand rammed the BULLDOG's starboard quarter. She then opened fire with a small pom-pom or large machine gun, but was evidently out of control as she next rammed the KELLY. She struck the KELLY at the break of the forecastle and charged down my starboard side, carrying away the whaler, motor boat and motor boat davits, and knocking guard-rails and the starboard torpedo davit overboard.15. She left behind some parts of her hull and a large clip of ammunition which was handed to the Admiralty Constructive Officer who inspected the ship on her arrival at the Tyne. Her engine was heard to stop, then splutter and finally die out, and although the fog was so dense that she could not be seen, she must certainly have sunk.16. Sometime later the noise of another Motor Torpedo Boat was heard in the fog. We all expected that this second Motor Torpedo Boat would be able to get the KELLY since it was clear that she would be able to sight me first in the fog, but I had machine guns and pom-pom manned in readiness. Fortunately, however, she disappeared without sighting the KELLY.17. The tow consisted of the BULLDOG's 3 1/2inch wire and two shackles of the KELLY's cable. By skilful handling the BULLDOG succeeded in making Westing clear of the danger zone at about 6 knots.18. At 0310/10 the KANDAHAR appeared by herself and at 0430/10 I stopped to allow her to put her starboard quarter alongside the KELLY's starboard quarter and take off my wounded and those men (chiefly of the engine room and wireless departments) who would not be required for fighting the ship, since all machinery was out of action. With no lighting or heating arrangements and a shortage of water and with the sick bay wrecked, the facilities for attending to the more seriously wounded on board the KELLY were not good.19. During the transfer of the wounded the first German aircraft appeared and all guns were in action in both ships as the wounded were carried over.View the rest of the story here.

John Emms (British, 1843-1912)The New Forest Buckhounds signed and dated 'JNO EMMS/1896' (lower left)oil on canvas76 x 109cm (30 x 43in).Footnotes:ProvenanceAnon. sale, Sotheby's, New York, 11 April 1997, lot 126.Private collection, UK.The two younger men in the painting were local Hampshire residents from the Gulliver family – one was a whipper-in and the other was a kennel-man for the New Forest Buckhounds in 1895. Their descendants are said to still live in Hampshire.Emms particularly specialized in paintings of hounds at kennels and hunts in Hampshire, and the New Forest Hounds, perhaps the area's most well-known pack, were a frequent subject for the artist. A keen huntsman with a consummate interest in the sporting field, John Emms had the rare ability to give real life to his subjects. He was at his very best when painting dogs; with confident use of fluid brushstrokes, he gives weight and solidity to their different physical characteristics as well as their individual temperaments. He used to walk to the kennels every day and return to his studio with one hound after another as he undertook preliminary sketches in working up to the overall composition. Born in Blofield, Norfolk, the son of artist Henry William Emms, as a young man John Emms travelled to London where he worked as a studio assistant to Frederic, Lord Leighton. In the early 1860s, while Leighton was working on the fresco of The Wise and Foolish Virgins for St. Michael and All Angels Church in Lyndhurst, Emms – who is believed to have contributed the owl below the outstretched arms of the angel to right of centre – travelled with the great Pre-Raphaelite painter. This first visit to Hampshire would set the artist on the course that would ultimately define the rest of his career. By 1872 he returned to Lyndhurst part-time while maintaining a studio in London and settled there permanently around 1881. Apart from the great natural beauty of this area of the New Forest, Lyndhurst also offered all manner of different types of hunting - pursuits very close to the artist's heart. A good horseman, avid huntsman and convivial guest, Emms soon found himself in high demand for the horse, hound, and dog portraits he painted for members of the peerage and landed gentry throughout the British Isles. Emms cut a flamboyant figure, always dressed in a long black cloak and matching wide brimmed hat. He and his family led a somewhat bohemian life; when times were good, after selling a painting, he would take his wife Fanny, their three daughters and son up to London to stay in the best hotels and live life to the full. Highly respected during his lifetime, Emms left a great body of work.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

William Henry Hamilton Trood (British, 1860-1899)Motherhood - A Springer Spaniel and Her Litter signed and dated 'W.H.Trood/1893' (lower left)oil on canvas30.5 x 41cm (12 x 16 1/8in).Footnotes:Trood was an animal painter and sculptor, very often of dog subjects and hunting scenes. From his home at 13 Trafalgar Studios, Kings Road, London, he kept a menagerie in the garden, until the neighbours complained of the noise. After this complaint, he reduced his collection to a fox, a badger, and an otter, all of which he allowed to run loose in his studio. He once tried to hypnotise a dog into staying still.The hallmarks of Trood's work are tight painting technique with great attention to anatomical detail and often composed with Victorian sentimentality. This skill, but also his emotive subjects, appealed to the public of the day and he enjoyed success as a commercial artist popularising his works through print. Publishers such as Arthur Tooth & Sons were quick to see his public popularity, using illustrated catalogues to show his work engraved by S. A. Edwards.Trood exhibited extensively at institutions including the Royal Society of Artists in Birmingham (4); the Dudley Gallery (1); the Grosvenor Gallery (2); the Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts (2); the Manchester City Art Gallery (6); the Royal Academy (23); the Royal Society of British Artists (20); the Royal Institute of Oil Painters (4); and Arthur Tooth & Sons Gallery (17).Today Trood's works can be seen in The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. And one of the American Kennel Club's most famous paintings is his 1888, A Domestic Scene.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

He was promoted Surgeon Lieutenant-Commander on 13 May 1904, and Staff Surgeon on 13 May 1905, retiring in 1906. Recalled for service during the Great War, he was posted to H.M.S. Glasgow, and was present in her at the Battle of Coronel on 1 November 1914, where she had a miraculous escape under the cover of darkness; both H.M.S. Good Hope and Monmouth, however, were sunk with the loss of all hands. Wysard was still serving in H.M.S. Glasgow when, along with H.M.S. Kent, the two ships encountered the German light cruiser Dresden, the only warship of von Spee’s squadron to have escaped destruction during the Falklands action, and which the South Atlantic squadron were now hunting down, off the south west coast of Chile on the morning of 14 March 1915. Both British warships opened fire; Dresden fired off only three shots before her guns were knocked out by British gunfire. On fire and holed at the waterline, Captain Lüdecke raised the white flag and sent over a negotiator to gain time while he prepared Dresden for scuttling. At 10:45, the scuttling charge detonated in the bow and exploded the forward ammunition magazines. The bow was badly mangled; in about half an hour, the ship had taken on enough water to sink. This was the end of von Spee’s East Asiatic Squadron. The official history states that the Surgeon of Glasgow (Wysard) was on his way to render aid when the Dresden blew up. Sold with copied research.
