Original movie costumes and props from The Rocketeer...

In director Joe Johnston's 1991 homage to pulp comic and Saturday matinee heroes of the 1930's and 1940's, Billy Campbell stars as the titular 'Rocketeer', a young stunt pilot who stumbles onto a mysterious prototype jetpack which allows him to fly.

The nostalgic movie is set in 1930's L.A., where stunt pilot 'Cliff Secord' discovers the rocket pack and uses it to battle Nazi spies.

Based on the iconic retro look of Dave Stevens Rocketeer superhero which first appeared in 1982, the costumes in the movie are designed by Marilyn Vance, whose work can also be seen in Die Hard, Predator and Pretty Woman to name but a few films.
