A group of 30 film stills of the actor, director, and martial artist Bruce Lee starring in the iconic film Enter the Dragon.


The film became Bruce Lee's last project before his untimely death shortly before its release. The stills include images of the actors Jim Kelly, John Saxon, and Bruce Lee engaging in realistic kung fu style fights. The group also includes two shots of Bruce Lee with co-stars off the set. Enter the Dragon sparked a new wave of martial arts appreciation in cinema and combined the genres of blaxploitation, martial arts, and spy films into one plot. Silver prints, the images measuring approximately 4x6 inches (10.2x15.2 cm.), and slightly smaller, and the reverse, the sheets slightly larger. 1973
