Unfortunately it was just a shell inside. Nothing but steel cables for support, And yes, my cousin was a FABULOUS artist!!!! He's no longer with us, but the two of us had a lot of GREAT times together.

Decided to bump this thread. Does anyone have a General idea where the bulldog cafe or duck pond filming location was located. I didn't have time to research the exact filming location. I'm on a road trip and figured passing by The city it was filmed. Only info I have is it is on piru near newhall ranch

I remeber ECBBFan was putting together a bunch of research on it a while back, but I didn't hear if he ever found the actual location

Were you able to take the tour? I know they used to have some Rocketeer items of "questionable origin"

What questionable origin are you talking about...Clearly this is one of the Hero helmets.

The helmet is truly a prototype helmet haha.
The museum was closed. Fortunately the person in charge was in the museum. He gave us a private tour and we talked rocketeer and such. I will be donating one of my evilrocketeer buckets to the museum so they can have a more accurate helmet

I was joking about the costume, but I think they used to have quite a few props.

Wow-that’s quite generous, I'm sure it will be appreciated by many. Maybe if you're really lucky they will trade you for their prototype helmet.

Some Rocketeer bachgeround material on video from Harland Elison on You-Tube LINK:

Old conversation but I just found out that the Bulldog Cafe from the movie was cut apart and shipped to Florida where it was reassembled without the interior. Sot the Bulldog Cafe that was seen on the backlot tour WAS the one form the movie. This came from the crew leaders for the set company that took it apart and loaded it on the trucks that were taking it to Florida.
