Has anyone here heard of the name Bob Burns in respect to a Vader cast from original?

The guy who has all those wonderful original Alien props? Or am I thinking of the wrong guy? And no, never heard of him having any Star Wars memorabilia. Would be interesting to hear more.

I think Bob has a warehouse full of movie memorabilia from all kinds of movies. His Alien stuff is what you typically see on the web, but he's got much more than that. I know he did have some SW stuff many years ago.

Cool. Would be interesting to hear more about what he has.

I've seen pictures of Vader's severed hand from ROTJ that are supposed to be from his collection. No idea if either the hand or the photos are authentic.

Yes it is almost certainly authentic. He doesn't have too many SW props. C3PO feet. The Vader hand with saber attached. But his collection of original props is unmatched.

But to answer your question no he hasn't got a Vader helmet that I know of, or that I've heard of. Unless this is something you heard about recently?

Yes, his collection is damn impressive. Saw it in the Alien Quadrilogy features... AWESOME!!!

Okay thanks. Of course - I forgot about this guy. Hmmm. Someone offered me something via email
that sounds fishy now. But thanks for the info.
