    Blue Bloods Episode 402 prop license plate and car

    I got these plates for when I do picture car work. It is the same plate number used on the detective's car on the original Law & Order and is a clear number. And now they are screen used on episode 402 of Blue Bloods. I also have the NYC Schedule A filming permit that goes with this, but it...

    Won't Back Down license plates

    The plates in the top row come from the movie Won't Back Down (the rest are from unknown productions plus a real one in the bottom left). Oddly, the one at the top right is a real plate.

    What happens to the props used on set or production?

    A lot of productions in New York will donate to Film Biz Recycling in Brooklyn. They are a non-profit, so the production can get a tax break. Some of the set pieces and wardrobe goes to various charities and some of it gets sold in their store - think giant thrift shop with all sorts of things...

    Not screen used just yet.

    I mentioned before that I do picture car work with my car (as seen on 30 Rock's final episode).

Hopefully they will...

    DMV correct - Ghostbusters 2 ECTO1A license plate

    This would be an DMV correct version of the ECTO1A plate from Ghostbusters 2. All you would need to do would be emboss ECTO1A and COMMERCIAL for it to look like something from Albany.

    The Walking Dead Season 4

    Walking Dead rumour: production moving to NY? Working on some sets in NYC, I have heard the following rumour: The Walking Dead is going to be moving production to New York next season. One of the main reasons behind this is because the stars are unhappy with filming in the middle of nowhere...

    I drive a prop!

    My car gets more visible screen time than I do. Does this increase the value? ;) Here it is on the last episode of 30 Rock and they let me keep the prop plates. And on Smash - Season 2 episode 9 I am waiting to see how visible it will be in a few other shows which haven't aired yet.
