Mark Hamill’s Screen-Worn Hero Pants in the Original 1977 ”Star Wars” as Luke Skywalker
Screen-worn ”hero” costume pants worn by Mark Hamill in his career-defining role as Luke Skywalker in the 1977 epic film ”Star Wars”, the first in the groundbreaking trilogy. As one of the top-grossing films of all time, George Lucas’ first film in the successful series won six Oscars, among many other awards. In a galaxy far, far away, Hamill donned these iconic pants as the Jedi Knight of all Jedi Knights, wearing the costume pants throughout much of the film. Sand-colored ”cotton drill” Levi’s pants are purposely distressed to display wear, with dirt to back right pocket and in spots to front of pant legs. In fact, in an accompanying article, Mark Hamill said of the pants, ”By the way, those pants I wore were just bleached Levi’s with the tag still in them.” Pants measure 29” waist x 37” in length with two 6” slits up each side. Customized by the famous London costumier, Bermans & Nathans, original tag sewn to inseam reads: ”Bermans & Nathans / 40 Camden St., / London N.W. 1” tag with a ”Mark Hamill / 10490 Luke / Star Wars” printed in type beneath it. Very good condition overall. Also with tags attached from both Christie’s, where the pants were originally auctioned, and Sotheby’s, from its 1998 auction. Rare piece of Star Wars screen used memorabilia. Sold for $60,000.

Controversial sale of Oscar statuettes brings $3 million
The largest collection of Oscar statuettes ever offered for public sale has been sold for more than $3 million, a Brentwood auctioneer said Wednesday.
The 15 golden figures were sold to three individuals in a sale conducted online, said auctioneer Nate D. Sanders. The auctioneer would not disclose the identities of the bidders.
Thirteen of the statues were purchased by one buyer.
The most expensive statuette was Herman Mankiewicz’s 1941 Best Screenplay Academy Award for “Citizen Kane,” which sold for $588,455. The same award had been purchased in 1999 for $244,500.
The 15 statuettes had been collected by a Los Angeles businessman whom Sanders also declined to identify. However, he described the seller as having ties to the entertainment industry.
The collector decided to sell the statuettes after Sanders sold Orson Welles’ “Citizen Kane” screenplay trophy three months ago for $861,542. Welles and Mankiewicz had shared the screenwriting award for the film.
Each of the auctioned statuettes were awarded in the 1930s and ‘40s, before the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences began requiring winners to sign a contract promising they and their heirs would not sell the trophy without first offering to sell it back to the Academy for $1.
The auction, which concluded Tuesday night, had been opposed by the filmmakers’ group.
“The Academy, its members and the many film artists and craftspeople who’ve won Academy Awards, believe strongly that Oscars should be won, not purchased,” said spokeswoman Janet Hill.
“Unfortunately, because our winners agreement wasn’t instituted until 1950, we don’t have any legal means of stopping the commoditization of these particular statuettes.”
The 1933 Best Picture Oscar awarded to “Cavalcade” went for the second-highest selling price: $332,165. The 1931 Best Picture statuette won by the film “Skippy” – the oldest in the auction — sold for $301,973.
