Indiana Jones' Whip Belongs in a Museum, Unless You've Got $500,000 to Spare
The iconic bullwhip, whip holster, and belt set from 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade' are going up for auction.
It's one of the most recognizable weapons in movie history: the bullwhip wielded by Harrison Ford's rakish adventurer in the Indiana Jones movies. If you're an Indy superfan—particularly of the 1989 series entry Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade—and you have a rather large spare stash of cash, here's your chance to own not just the whip, but also the whip holster and belt set used in the Steven Spielberg classic.
Propstore has this drool-worthy treasure as the featured item in an entertainment-focused auction coming up in September. The whip uncoiled is eight feet long and was made by David Morgan, who the auction house identifies in a press release as 'the master whipmaker who supplied all the original whips for the classic Indiana Jones trilogy.'
It's in excellent condition and is said to be the only known set of whip, belt, and holster available to private collectors. It's been in one such collection for years—an unnamed 'production source' who worked on Last Crusade—and this is its first time coming up for sale.
The lot also comes with a tag from the film's production, designating its use in the 'Rideaway Scene,' as well as a 'production-used call sheet' that ties the whip to the film's memorable motorcycle chase sequence filmed mostly in Marin County, California. That said, 'the motorcycle chase was filmed at the end of the production schedule and the whip, belt, and holster may also have been used in earlier filming at the studio in the UK or on location in Spain.'
More details: 'The whip and holster remain secured by metal wire ties added by the props team to hold the set together. The whip also bears dark markings from previous bindings, consistent with how it was worn coiled on Indy's belt during filming.'
This thing is undeniably badass and is estimated to command an eye-watering $250,000 to $500,000. It may belong in a museum, but imagine just casually having it in your home? Learn more about the auction here, and check out all the images below.
If the price tag on the whip is too rich for your blood, a more attainable Holy Grail—Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade on the big screen—is also something to look forward to. Fathom Entertainment is bringing it back for Father's Day, with screenings planned for June 14-15 and 18. Find out theater and ticket details here.
