I'm not taking seedy pictures of my mother for you.

It was bought from Libertys in London (Regents Street)

I don't blame you at all.

Maybe Liberty's still has some of those around for those interested.

This would seem to be a very common design among Indian craftsmen then. Knowing the right dimensions from the original, it may be that these folks could commission the design from their suppliers. Just a thought... :confused

I'll e-mail them just for fun to see what would be the cost. Considering the other prices on their website I'll make sure I'm sitting down when I read their reply... :lol

Anyone find one of these yet? Has anyone tried Pear 1, or hobby lobby, or somewhere like that?

Is there any more interest in this? I have photos from a Planet Hollywood of a claimed-to-be-original chest...

 

[franz bolo]

Can you post the pics?

 

[OldKen]

LOL,

i love when im reading through a thread and laugh to myself because its such a simmilar thread to one ive read before... then i look at the date... and realise its the same discussion, bumped up from oblivion.

yes, i would love to find a close match to this.

wasnt there talk of it being from a movie even before SW?

seems i remember that being discussed elsewhere...

like from an OLD mummy movie or somethin...

they reuse props alot, could be in the background in several things.

 

[PHArchivist]

Yup -- I dragged this thread up from the bottom.

I will post pics later. They were from the Planet Hollywood in Vancouver, if I recall correctly. Bearing in mind it was from a PH, whose to say if it really was the original...

 

[PHArchivist]

Ack. I flaked last night. Will try to post tonight

SOMEONE PM ME FOR GOD'S SAKE TO REMIND ME..

 

[franz bolo]

I found this in my pics library. Don't know who took this but if you need credit or want it removed, PM me.

It looks the same as the other one except for the color. Is it Black?

FB

Does anyone have any screen grabs?

Thanks

[kurtyboy]

I think its just the photo that makes it look black.

Correct.

Again, I have two more good shots, one with really good close up detail. Just got to get Wackychimp to allow 900kb image files.

 

[franz bolo]

Send them to me and I'll get the file size down in photoshop.

[franz bolo]

Some Screencaps. If anyone has any better ones' please post them.:

I wonder if it would be feasible to have someone make a scaled down copy? I don't have the room or need for a full size one, but I'd love to have one that was just big enough for a graflex based ANH saber.

 

[franz bolo]

I'm going to make one for myself to house my OWK parts and display. It will have 2 shelves.

The top shelve will have my OWK and Luke saber and the lower shelf will have my original OWK parts with plaques or something.

I might start off with a jewelry box or a wooden cigar box as a base.

I can add on all the metal and I'm thinking of getting the XXXXX pattern laser cut out of plastic or make a template out of sticker paper and spray paint the box with the pattern.

It might be about 14-18: wide. My ex brother in laws brother owns an antique restoration shop and he might be able to help me out.
