Est. $1,200-$1,500 Titanic Movie Prop "Third Class Passenger's Contract Ticket" Won By Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCapprio) Framed W/COA - This amazing movie prop is a framed third-class ticket from James Camerons’ Oscar winning masterpiece, Titanic. This ticket was won by Jack Dawson (portrayed by Leonardo DiCapprio) in the fateful on-shore gambling scene, allowing him passage aboard the White Star Line ship Titanic. The ticket has been printed "Third Class (Steerage) Passenger's Contract Ticket", and is filled out in the name of Olaf Gunderson, whom Jack wins the ticket from. The ticket image is actually a mirror image (reversed), and all words and images on the ticket are actually printed backward on the paper for the purposes of filming. In order to film the departure scene from Southampton which, in real life, was appropriately done from the port side, Cameron filmed the starboard side and then "flopped" the film in the lab. Consequently, many notices, signs, and props were printed as mirror images so that the film could be "reversed". This prop ticket has been professionally mounted in a framed display, and will come with a certificate of authenticity from 20th Century Fox. The piece measures approx. 11.25" x 10.25", and is in beautiful condition. Titanic is a 1997 American epic romance-disaster film directed, written, co-produced and co-edited by James Cameron. The film achieved critical and commercial success, being nominated for 14 Academy Awards, and winning 11 including the awards for Best Picture and Best Director. The film had an initial worldwide gross of over $1.84 billion, making it the first film to reach the billion-dollar mark. The film is the 2nd highest grossing film of all time, only falling behind Cameron's "Avatar" in 2010.
