One of the original Grail Diaries, the headpiece of the Staff of Ra, and a holy grail prop are just three pieces from Prop Store's upcoming Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction collection. Adam gets to inspect all three and catches details he's never noticed before in his own research and replicas of these iconic props!
Check out the props and costumes from Prop Store's upcoming auction: propstoreauction.com/auctions...

I guess so because the head-piece and the grail look like poorly made reproductions. The jewel in the head-piece is the wrong color and the gold body has the wrong sheen. Knowing that props may or may not be exact duplicates for different scenes, but knowing what the grail looks like in Harrison Ford's hand, it still looks too large. 1in too tall in overall height and about a half inch too wide across the vessel.

For those trying to find the angels -- look at where the wing connects to the body , just below the bird’s neck. There is a small ball (angel’s head) and a gently curved piece that has a slightly different pattern than the rest of the feathers (angel’ wing). The angels are in a kneeling position, facing away from each other, angled about 45 degrees to perpendicular. There is one on each of the bird’s wings. ADDED NOTE - At 6:54 a finger (Adam’s?), moves back and forth over the medallion for several seconds. It is following the wing of the angel on the right side. It obviously wasn’t filmed during the discussion shown in the video since there isn’t a white cotton glove.

"Laid paper" has chain lines, they're faintly visible as a background on the page. It is rag paper, made from cloth scraps, not wood pulp. It was the only kind of paper that existed till the mid- late 19th century. It definitely holds up better to handling and age than "normal" paper made of wood pulp - as it would have for Henry Jones, Sr.

I was working at Keir Lusby Props when Stephen Lane and the Indie collectors were visiting. Keir and his wife Louise and their crew had made some amazing things over the forty odd years they’d been around - truly one of the names in the U.K. prop making industry. It was a real one-stop-shop, with many skills in many disciplines all under one roof. One of their last big jobs was the original Pirates of the Caribbean movie, with the Aztec medallion and Jack’s compass being two of their contributions.Sadly the company closed around 2010 when the couple retired, and the crew went their separate ways. Keir turned 80 just the other day! Happy Birthday mate!

I met Chuck Waters (stunt co ordinater on Raiders) when I was working 2nd unit grip on "Wrongfully Accused" with Leslie Nielsen in 1998. We were rolling a barrel with a Leslie Nielsen dummy down a hill (about 25 times). We started chatting and he told me who he was and I was like "I didn't know I was in the presence of a Hollywood legend". Nice guy, took the time to talk to people. I worked on most of the movie on both 1st and 2nd unit. The property where the house was was gorgeous, a nice little cove on the ocean. The moving platform deck on the front of the house was sure handy for moving equipment up. Fun times.

Today, I'm a great grandmother. But when Raiders of the Lost Ark came out, I was a precocious, bookish, strange little girl who loved archeology as much as sci-fi and fantasy. My family and extended family were very academic and 3 of my 4 grandparents had Master's degrees. While I attended Sunday school for many years, we weren't very religious, but I was fascinated by the stories. Thus, at a very young age, besides LotR, Dune, Foundation, I also read the Bible, cover to cover. So for me, when I walked out of the theater after Raiders, I felt similar to how I felt after Star Wars for the first time: it was a profound, life-changing event. To this day, Raiders is my favorite movie of all time......

On the grail, I think that rigging was used when Elsa dives for the grail and it looks like she knocks it farther away. Replaying the clip, it looks like it moves faster than it should.

Agreed. A ceramic cup with a stem that thick would have some heft to it, and the way she knocks it away just isn't quite natural.

I worked in props for a theater for a while, it blows me away thinking that if I had just worked on something that had taken off crazily that there could be people working hard trying to reproduce my pieces to the finest detail. That's crazy, I'd feel sorry for them. The process of prop making is so organic and fluid and RUSHED that replicating one, even for the original artist is hard, sometimes next to impossible. Often you're just grabbing stuff from junk shops or thrift stores and turning it into what you need, who knows if you'll ever be able to find another one of them? I'm in awe of people like Adam who manage to do this to such quality.

This was an interesting video. Two enthusiast sharing knowledge and learning from one another without arrogance or pretentiousness. I don't even care about movie props and I watched the whole video and enjoyed it.

I've started to notice that Tested has a big editing problem playing B-roll footage while Adam is demonstrating something. It's a small example but at 7:40, Adam is describing the ark angels meanwhile, the video is still focusing on the close up of the prop.

The cinematic release was Raiders of the Lost Ark. In 1999 for the video release the movie was re-branded with the pre-title "Indiana Jones and the...." But for the people like me who saw it at the cinema, and Adam, only refer to it as Raiders.
