Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrivals - Spaghetti Western
Although these starting being made, thanks to Sergio Leone, in the mid to late 1960's when I was born, they have always been a staple of mine and are always an absolute treat to watch.
I remember watching The Good The Bad and The Ugly dozens of times in my teens
Always on the lookout for cheap DVD's, I recently picked me up this
I have nothing in the way of props from these, because I'm not really into ponchos, boots, spurs, hats, saddles etc :lol
After The Good The Bad & The Ugly, my next all-time favourite is For a Few Dollars More, with the dastardly junkie baddie El Indio (Gian Maria Volonte) who meets his doom at the hands of Colonel Douglas Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) in revenge for the killing of his sister, from who el Indio stole the 'famous' Chiming Watch.
The memorable final dual scene, with Clint Eastwood (Monco) too of course :cool
So first up, the El Indio Wanted Poster (in small version)
And the Chiming Watch, which, in my opinion, outshines all the other mainly costume props in all the movies, and is, to me, the perfect representation for this classic genre of movies
Some screencaps
The replica.
The watch itself has a really nice weight, and is a fully functional one.
Of course, it chimes too :cool
I
love the part with the strings, makes me get in the mood and reach for the pistol
Both together
And on display here
