Leatherface Pt3 Help...screen-Used? - kaizu13 - 01-20-2011

There was guy selling off all his stuff on auction where I live.
I came across this mask.

The seller purchased this ten years ago at a junk shop for movie collectors.
I know this "shop", alot of rare stuff tend to pop up here occasionally.
He was told it was a screen-used from TCM3.
The description states, very old, has a few tears and is signed by the actor.
I've seen fakes stating "screen-used" on e-bay and it doesn't resemble the one I've seen in the past. I do not know of any screen used TCM3 masks of existence nor do I know how many were actually made for the film. I do know that the one in the excalibur teaser trailer is a different mask from the hero seen on film.
Is this some kind of replica? Stunt mask?
Keep in mind the ear flap is folded inward in order to show a signature in the 1st and 3rd pic.
Thanks

I know you might not want to, but in order for people to see it clear, you got to take it out of the bag.

Right-on!

The dents and dimples on the NOSE resemble those on the Hero.
The jaw piece is a different color(purple?) like the film and is folded towards the mask's left as seen in the 1st and 2rd pic. There doesn't seem to be a ear flap on the mask's right. I have not seen a screen cap showing a flap on that side. The eyes seem worn out, stretched and damaged from age.

If this were a replica, I have never seen one this good other than the one made by Lewis.

Yeah, since my pc only accepts region2 dvds, I couldn't get any screen caps since my copy of TCM3 is a US region1. I had to use Lewis's mask pics as reference to compare with this mystery mask Confusedweat:
Alot of features on this mask resembles those on Lewis's pt3 and some screen grabs of the Hero found on Google image search.
If I get anymore info on this piece I'll bump the thread.
Hey, if no one bothers bidding on it, I may just snatch it since the staring bid is very low and that it looks cool nevertheless :thumbsup:

Big thanks :laugh:
Great to see the masks right side, alot of resemblance right there :blink:
If this were indeed an unkown replica, the maker sure knew what he was doing.
