  “A family comedy without the family.”

  “Home Alone” was a massive blockbuster hit when released in 1990 launching the career of child star – Macaulay Culkin and it has gone on to attain cult status, as one of the greatest and best-loved Christmas movies and is one of the highest grossing box office comedy’s of all time.

It represents a fine example of rare, collectable cinematic movie memorabilia.
