First Time To Auction

Paramount, 1994. Signature character prop featured prominently throughout the beloved Academy Award-winning Robert Zemeckis classic Forrest Gump. The film became a cultural phenomenon embraced by viewers of all ages and the famous line "My momma always said life was like a box of cho-co-lates..." enunciated in the character's recognizable southern drawl is a touchstone of pop culture and film history for all time. The Russell Stover brand box of assorted milk and dark chocolates is labeled "The Gift Box" and is clearly auto-graphed by actor Tom Hanks at right of center above the ribbon. Wrapped in a decorative yellow bow, the box measures 14.5 x 6.5 x 1 in. Exhibiting production use, handling, and age. In very good to fine condition.
