Yeah, Awesome Collection.

The "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" by Georges Seurat is one of my favorite paintings.

It's the RollingStone issue from "Romancing the Stone". When Jack and Joan are hiding out in the crashed plane, Jack is reading about the "Doobie Brothers breaking up". This issue is the one he is holding. It really does have an article about the Doobie Brothers.

Not a daft question at all.

It's always nice to see how people display stuff.

Care to discuss a bit about which pieces are original/screen used? Maybe post a few close ups?

Very curious about a few of the indy bits in Kevjh's post...

best,
Tom

Actually, after recently watching this movie, (one of my favorites), I checked out the magazine in freeze-frame and, after doing some internet research, found out that it's issue #377 (SEPT. 2, 1982) with Elvis Costello on the cover. I don't know if it actually contains any references to the Doobie Brothers breaking up or not, but it's definitely the one that Michael Douglas was using in that scene. By the way Brad, where did you get that awesome picture of Jack Colton's "dream-boat"?

VERY interesting. I was told by a member here, that this was the issue. Without thinking twice about, I bought it. Hmmmmm.

As for the boat pic. I made it in photoshop. I posted it in the paper prop section. It's 99% close.

Thanks Adam C.

Man, I can't wait to have access to that paper prop section! That will definitely be my first download. I've been trying to replicate your "Romancing the Stone" collection ever since I first saw it. I've got the emerald "El Corazon" itself, and that treasure map, but it's the little extras like the books and pictures that make the display that much more interesting. Keep up the good work Brad!:thumbsup

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE THAT WANTS TO SURE THERE PROP ROOMS :cry:cry
 
Neat stuff Kev! I really like the Last Crusade artwork. And the lifemask is just an oddball fun piece :)

I notice in your displays, the pieces all seem to share the same space.

Do you take any steps to ID which pieces are replica and which are original in your displays? When I had more replicas (at one point I had quite a few Indy replicas and originals come to think of it!), I used to make an effort to give the original pieces a bit more space and "air" around them and usually would ID them with a small plaque.

I could still step back and enjoy the collection as a whole but doing that added some importance to those pieces which had a bit more history.

Obviously, I'm not trying to tell you how to display anything. Just musing out loud on the subject. Would be curious to hear what other folks think about mixing replicas and originals and how they approach it.

best,
Tom
