Lot #50:

Forrest Gump Screen Used Iconic Box of Chocolates Prop also Signed by Tom Hanks

Offered here is the iconic Box of Chocolates sand-filled prop that was screen used in the classic film “Forrest Gump”. Tom Hanks can be seen holding this box of chocolates while sitting on the bus stop bench, retelling his whole story to the several people who come and come, waiting next to him. Tom Hanks has also signed the box in black felt tip pen. The box reads, “Russell Stover Candies, The Gift Box, A Select Assortment of Milk & Dark Chocolates”. If you were to own anything used in the movie, this would be it. Good condition, framed with a photograph of Tom Hanks holding the box. Comes with a Letter of Authenticity from Funtyme Memorabilia stating that the box was production used. We believe this to be the actual screen used box, as the box is filled with sand so that Hanks could hold it correctly and it would sit on his lap properly. Also comes with a Gotta Have Rock & Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
