I have the Corbis photos and it's clear the grill meshes are identical...there's no way it is a coincidence....

Remember that the VP is ROTJ era....the left cheek sags more, for example...and the nosebridge on the left side has been cleaned up...just as the teeth indentations were cleaned off.....so it's received some treatment...although to lesser extent...similar to that of the GH...cleanup. But also it shows signs of either a poor pull or the mold was old (not fitting in its casing properly) or something like that...

I just had another thought about this photo.


It was among a colletion of photos owned by Nick Harrison Right?

If you read the page on the elstreewebsite about Nick it apears he had a good relationship with both Fox and LFL, perhapse these photos where taken of the props somewhere else - on a feild trip to the LfL or FOX archive and not of things stored in elstree? Is there anything that can link the mask in the photo to having actualy been at elstree?

I've seen some other pics at Elstree Props where props were photographed on that very same carpet...according to Paul H., the faceplate (complete helmet?) was part of Nick's collection, but did he he really own those props or was he just renting storage space to Fox?
