Screen-matched bracelet associated with Marilyn Eastman’s character Helen Cooper from Night of the Living Dead (1968)
This originated from Eastman’s personal collection, a pivotal figure both onscreen and behind-the-scenes of the film’s production. Eastman and Hardman’s company, Hardman/Eastman, Inc., partnered with Romero’s production company, The Latent Image, to found Image Ten, which produced Night of the Living Dead. In addition to starring alongside Hardman as Helen Cooper, Eastman also contributed script editing, makeup, and prop assistance on the independent production.
