D.I.D. raptor and T-Rex head castings from the production of Steven Spielberg's Academy Award-winning sci-fi action adventure Jurassic Park. The Dinosaur Input Device, or D.I.D., was created by Dinosaur Supervisor Phil Tippett's Tippett Studio and Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) to allow stop-motion-style inputs to be translated to mobile CG models of dinosaurs such as the Velociraptors and Tyrannosaurus Rex. This lot comes from Tippett, who was nominated for an Academy Award for his work on the film. Both the gray raptor and white T-Rex heads are cast in resin with wood blocks screwed into the jaws. They exhibit scuffing and some stains from use, but remain in good overall condition. Includes a letter of authenticity from Phil Tippett.

Dimensions ( each): 5" x 3" x 3 1/2" (12.75 cm x 7.75 cm x 9 cm)

Estimate: $1,500 - 2,500
