Industrial Light & Magic: The Art of Special Effects - By Thomas G. Smith - Intro by George Lucas
Lavishly illustrated book detailing the art of motion picture special effects at the incomparable Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), the cornerstone of George Lucas's empire. Book traces the history and highlights of ILM from 1975, when Lucas founded the company to produce special effects for his Star Wars, to the dawn of digitized film in the late 1980s and introduces the technical pioneers who created some of film's most memorable moments. Covers visual effects design, model making, creatures, stop-go motion, miniatures, matte painting, animation, and compositing - all illustrated with examples from films that ILM transformed with its genius: E.T., Star Trek, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Back to the Future, Poltergeist, Cocoon, among others. All the unforgettable icons are here: the Snow Walkers from The Empire Strikes Back, the warehouse from Raiders of the Lost Ark, the speeder bike chase in Return of the Jedi, Elliot pedalling across the moon from E.T. Top-quality production values: heavy paper, rich color images, fold-outs, extended dust jacket flaps. Written by former general manager at ILM. Must-have title for film buffs and Lucas fans.

Vintage Panetta Rhinestone Drop Earrings - Fine Costume Jewelry From High Quality MidCentury Maker
Exquisite pair of dangle drop rhinestone earrings made by Panetta, one of the most respected costume jewelers in mid-century America. These clip-on earrings feature many of the touches that have made the Panetta name famous. The sleek geometric silhouette, with a kite-shaped ear piece and elongated triangular pendants, reflects the Art Deco style that was in vogue when Benedetto Panetta designed jewelry for the Trifari brand in the 1920s and '30s. The surfaces glisten with clear, sparkling pave-set rhinestones accented with tiny marcasite-like studding and swirled around open scrollwork - an example of Panetta's detailed workmanship and penchant for elaborate settings. The backings and clips are made of lustrous silver-toned metal, possibly the rhodium plating that recalled the precious platinum Panetta had once worked in his native Italy and favored for crafting the look of fine jewelry. Overall an eye-catching yet understated design that would provide the perfect accessory for an elegant outfit. Produced in limited quantities, Panetta jewelry is increasingly rare and highly sought after among fashion connoisseurs and collectors alike.

Vintage Lenox American Presidency Bicentennial Bowl - Fine China With 24K Gold - Limited Edition 1989
Graceful and distinctive commemorative bowl to honor the 200th anniversary of the American presidency in 1989. Made by Lenox, the oldest and most prestigious American china maker, the bowl was officially authorized by the Commission on the Bicentennial of the Constitution and issued in limited edition. The bowl is crafted of Lenox's legendary fine china and richly decorated with evocative symbols. Delicate sprays of rose-pink cherry blossoms and buds around the outside of the bowl are a tribute to George Washington, the nation's first president. There are 13 large gold stars along the inside rim to denote the original states and 40 small gold stars along the outer rim to symbolize the 40 men who served as presidents up to the bicentennial year - all in hand-applied 24 karat gold. Swag and garland motifs reflect the neo-classical Federal style that was the height of fashion in the late 18th century. The base of the bowl is emblazoned with the seal of the Commission and year of issue.
