When you hear Hawaii Five-O, what comes to mind?
First, a Giant wave pounding and powering through the ocean. Then a swooping panoramic helicopter shot leads you from the beautiful Honolulu skyline to the striking profile of officer Steve McGarrett, captain of Hawaii Five-O.
"Every boy dreams of playing a cowboy and/or a cop" . In Jack Lord's case, both dreams came true in "STONEY BURKE" and HAWAII FIVE-O".
Filmed entirely on location in beautiful Hawaii, and acted and directed by Jack Lord, the wonderful HAWAII FIVE-O series became a smash hit. It played for 12 seasons consistently in the top 20 of the Nielsen ratings and received the highest compliment from society when the world adopted the slang term "FIVE-O" for police.
We are pleased to present to you 'Jack Lord, The Star of HAWAII FIVE-O Auction'.
This auction includes a sizeable collection of celebrity memorabilia, such as "HAWAII FIVE-O mementos", artwork, paintings and photos by Jack Lord himself, photos, clothing designed by his wife Marie Lord, jewelry designed by Jack Lord, Jack’s musical instruments, as well as gifts from longtime friend Elvis Presley.
In some seventy countries, with a weekly audience estimated at over 300 million,
Jack Lord truly touched millions with his art of acting and directing. His personal life was and still is an inspiration to all of us. Marie and Jack married for 50 years were totally dedicated to one another. Jack Lord is deeply missed by his family, friends and fans. Even in passing, Jack's legacy lives on in his significant charitable giving.
I hope you will enjoy looking at some of these beautiful memories from the life of such a great man and the love of his life, Marie. |
