LVC Grand Duel Costume at Auction

LVC's screen worn costume from the Grand Duel recently sold at auction for £5,000 (£6,250 with premium).  

Fantastic piece that is screen matched as well.  I'm sure the winner will enjoy it.  Actually, I know he will...

Catalog description-

Sheriff Clayton's (Lee Van Cleef) costume with screen-matched trousers from Giancarlo Santi's spaghetti Western The Grand Duel. Clayton wore his costume throughout the film, as he sought justice for Philip Wermeer (Alberto Dentice), a man wrongly accused of murder. The trousers screen match the climatic duelling scene through the placement of the pinstripes. This lot comes from the archives of the Italian costume company Costumi d'Arte.

The costume comprises a black satin frock coat with a suede collar and a handwritten label in the neckline reading "Liy Van Clyft [sic]"; a black corduroy waistcoat labelled "Liy Van Cliyft [sic]"; and a pair of black trousers with white pinstripes labelled "Liy Van Clyft [sic]". Each clothing item has interior labels from Italian costume supplier Costumi d'Arte Peruzzi. The costume pieces have some very minor discolouration.

Additional Provenance: This lot comes from the archives of the famed Italian costume company Costumi d'Arte. The company has been supplying some of the biggest film productions in the world with costumes for over 100 years.

Estimate: £5,000 - 10,000

VHS Flashback: Speed Zone!

Before streaming, blu-ray, and DVD, most LVC films were only available on home video cassette tapes, usually VHS (but also Betamax).  Many of us discovered these films for the first time in these formats (usually cropped and edited).


Often times due to rights issues, these films were given new titles (some similar to the original, some not).  Often the cover image of LVC was not from the actual film!  In this case it looks like there was only one press phone of LVC for this movie and it was used on every box in every territory.

Here is a look back at the old VHS LVC video covers for Speed Zone!

Comic - Moon vs the Ghost of Lee Van Cleef

I recently ran across this on the internet- a comic called "Moon vs the Ghost of Lee Van Cleef".  Another modern take on Zombie LVC that started with the Primus music video in 2012.

The Ghost of the actor who played The Bad in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly has risen and is slowly marching across the English Channel towards a mysterious destination. All we know is he's armed, dangerous, unerringly accurate and deathly silent and he's heading towards London..
