Universal Monsters The Mummy Ring Limited Edition Prop Replica

Using rare behind-the-scenes photos and many hours of artifact research, Factory Entertainment has recreated one of the most beloved classic Universal Monster props to date: Imhotep's Scarab Ring as worn by Boris Karloff in 1932's The Mummy.

Each ring comes as a US Men's size 13, and is 18K gold plated with an antique finish and genuine onyx stone. A solid polystone mummy display hand - Molded off of Karloff's actual hand casting - accompanies every ring. A numbered limited edition of 500 pieces, each Scarab ring is presented in a full color collector box and includes a prop story booklet, a numbered certificate of authenticity and mummy hand display.

Tyler, did you sculpt Karloff's hand from the casting? That thing's creepy as Hell!

I actually had nothing to do with that - Oddly enough, the factory .. for whatever reason .... had a casting of Boris Karloff's hand......

Seriously.. ha!

kklloo

I like it. Will definitely order one. I like the hand too.

I'm sure Universal must've provided it. Jack Pierce probably made it back in the day.
