: : Thanks for the response to my earlier post guys. I have just read in today's 'Evening Standard' (a London newspaper) that the whip was the surprise performer of the auction. It finally went for £27,600!!! The new owner is an American fan called Anthony Pugliese III. Interestingly, the article describes the whip as being only 8ft 10ins long and states that it was used by Ford in all three films. Does this shorter length give weight to the personal target whip theory suggested by Michaelson?

:
: It definitely a personal whip. A shorter whip is easier to train with, especially for beginners.

: wow! £27,600 thats US$44,816.04

: Lets hope he gets throught the American customs without the Levy like the Wested Jackets ; )

For that kind of money, he'd be better off going over and picking it up personally! Regards. Michaelson
