Scarface poster with Uzi gun anyone? Price is a mere Dh170,500
A rare opportunity to pick up rarer collectibles in the exclusivity of the Bur Al Arab setting
Dubai: As collectibles go, this is perhaps priceless.
Never mind the tag of Dh170,500, it’s not for nothing that a poster and gun used in the legendary movei Scarface on display at the ongoing World Luxury Expo in Dubai has become the talk of the town.
Encasing the famous Uzi submachine gun used by Al Pacino when taking on drug lords at his mansion in the 1983 film, the collection is considered a steal for those who can afford it.

The barrel, of course, has been plugged and the gun rendered non-firing but the great prop weapon is there alright. What’s more, the poster is signed by Al Pacino and other lead actors.
The luxury expo, organised by OMS Events and promoted by the Dubai Events and Promotions Establishment (Depe) as part of the Dubai Shopping Festival, is a rare opportunity to pick up rarer collectibles in the exclusivity of the Bur Al Arab setting.
Among the other memorabilia on offer are a $1 million (Dh3.67 million) 16th century sword in a 22-carat gold sheath, a Dh3.1 million Ultimate Centennial Dragon fountain pen and a Dh97,500 Bee with Silver perfume. So what if only the rich can indulge in such treats? It doesn’t stop people like you and me from wishful thinking!
