Description

Academy Award-winning director (1914-2005) best known for the films West Side Story, The Sound of Music, and The Day the Earth Stood Still; he was also the editor for Citizen Kane. Collection of three souvenir Directors Guild award statuettes in the shape of director's chairs, respectively labeled: "Directors Guild of America, 50th Annual Awards Dinner, March 7, 1998, Robert Wise"; "Directors Guild of America, 53rd Annual Awards Dinner, March 10, 2001," with "Robert Wise" on the back; and "Directors Guild of America, 54th Annual Awards Dinner, March 9, 2002, Robert Wise." In overall fine condition. The 2001 chair is the rarest variation, as it was the only year that the black design was used; subsequent years returned to the traditional gold chairs.
