Widely considered to be one of the greatest sports films of all time, “Raging Bull” is a 1980 film based on the memoir of boxer Jake LaMotta. The film is considered to be one of Robert Di Niro’s best performances and one of Scorcese’s greatest productions. Di Niro, a known method actor, was able to work with Jake LaMotta on set. During the production of the film, replica programs from a Madison Square Garden fight were used. A film extra from the set was able to obtain the autographs of Robert Di Niro, Martin Scorsese, Jake LaMotta, famed cinematographer Michael Chapman and makeup artist Frank Westmore (from the famous Westmore family) on one of these programs. This piece is the only known example of these 5 autographs on a prop from Raging Bull. The program has been framed and measures approximately 10”x13” in total. Accompanied by a full LOA from JSA and an LOP from the film extra.
