Forrest Gump Props

Are there any easy or printable Forest Gump props out there that anyone can think of? I've reproduced the letter that Forrest gets from Apple and I can post it if others would be interested. I'm also in the process of recreating the ping pong standee of Forrest too.
 
Yeah, I'd be interested in the Apple letter.
Gotta say I never thought of this film as one for having props of any kind.
You almost need to watch movies again just to see what's there..

By 'standee' you mean the cardboard cutout of him with the paddles that was next to his door when he got home??? If yes, are you doing it full-size??

I'd love one.
 
If you look hard enough, you might find some vintage soda bottles like the ones seen at the white house party in the film. My grandparents collected several that looked very close, including about 3 Dr Peppers, 2 sprites, and about 20 Coca-Colas, but they have all been sold to either vintage bottle collecters or flea markets.

i took a tour of the paramount lot years ago and have pictures of that bench..........

it was darn heavy trying to load it in the truck but........ hahahah Just kidding...
 
So the Gump ping pong standee is in my office right now. He's a bit taller than he should be but I got a good deal on getting this made so I'm happy. I'll try to get a pic up somehow soon.

The Apple letter. The only problem with it is that I was unable to find the actual street address that goes on it. Other than that I think it's perfect. Anyone know where Forrest lives? Other than in GREENBOW ALABAMA.?.? I'd like to fix that one thing before posting up the letter.
