Really great stuff, guys & gals!
Robert, that looks rather disturbing!  I saw THE NAVY VS THE NIGHT MONSTERS at the Drive-In when I was around 10 years old!
If you think THAT looks disturbing, you oughta see ME!

Thus far, the budget has only afforded re-pro props/costumes etc, and living vicariously thru some of you!

Just one tiny piece of memorabilia. so precious to me that the original is in the bank.  The picture of Colin Clive and Mae Clarke sitting in the Frankenstein garden...under a huge microphone hanging from a tree.  The original was taken by a friend of Mae's on the set, and is a tiny, sepia toned "Brownie" shot.

It had come to me by way of a neighbor who had known Ms. Clarke in Los Angeles in the early 60s.  Helen told me that Mae was extremely "eccentric" at the time, and in the habit of giving away things "willy-nilly".  Funny, how it should come, by a fluke, to someone for whom it means so much.

There is a blowup of it on Pierre Fournier's FRANKENSTEINIA Blog,

We'll on the subject of props we have, this was Mina's coffin from  "Dracula Dead and loving It". 
What ever happened to my Transylvania Twist?

 Cool casket! From a really funny movie as well :)
So let me get this straight....Batman's true identity is Bruce Wayne, whom infact is Opera Ghost!!!! Don't let the Joker find out ;)

More odds and ends from my collection--this is the set of three modernist metal sculptures from the Dennis Hopper's office complex in George Romero's LAND OF THE DEAD (2005)--the middle one is the one John Leguizamo used to bash a zombie:

and--a latex foam zombie face--test-makeup for that movie:

Nice LOTD pieces. I have one prop from the film and the rest is wardrobe. The bottle of antibiotics Riley takes out of his p. coat.
The wardrobe pieces consists of Riley's p.coat and gloves, Cholo's bloodied longsleeve shirt, motorcycle boots, and his arrow holster.
Romero's films are hard to collect from, good catch on those items ;)

EP1972

I have been collecting screen used, and production made costumes and props since 1987.  My collection focuses on:

Indiana Jones
Star Wars films
Classic Hollywood
Tron/ Tron Legacy
Elvis Presley

And anyother film that really catches my fancy.  Here is a link to some pieces in my collection:  Note that these are only highlights.

Impressive! Really nice pieces. I especially love the Indy fedora, not a fan of the last film but it's still an Indy fedora! ;)

the only props I own are the dock shoes from THE PUNISHER and a knife sheath from the same movie.
