Nice frame captures, CN. I just watched a terrific/ terrible Hammer production from 1965 called "SHE"on U-Tube.... I got sucked into it by its classic Ooga Booga dance scene in the title sequence: ...and before I knew, I saw some familiar faces in the crowd: The Maori Tikis from BOTH sets depicted in this post: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=14685&forum=1&vpost=629073 This Mayfair Beachcomber "glowing eyes" mask close up tipped me of: ...and this full figure shot above, both are of the same Maori Tiki than the one used on the Avengers set. ...are definitely from the "Cracksman" Tiki Club entrance shown in my earlier post. The Hammer film was shot at Elstree Studios, also. When viewing the film it becomes obvious that the art director used a lot of props and costumes from Roman and Egyptian Cloak & Dagger films from the Elstree art department, so why go anywhere else for the "native" idols. :) [ Edited by: bigbrotiki 2012-09-16 15:16 ] |
