Item Description
Heavy cast aluminum (3/8" to .5" thick) production mold for manufacture of thin plastic masks for Ben Cooper late 1960s costumes based on the TV show "Julia," which starred Diahanne Carroll. "Julia" was one of the first weekly series to depict an African-American woman in a non-stereotypical role. The show ran for 86 episodes on NBC from Sept. 1968 to March 1971. Mold measures 7x10" and reverse features incised character name and the numbers 3 and 15. Has four original tapped threaded holes for mounting to machinery; two on left/right side have had screws added w/attached picture wire for hanging. Numerous tiny air holes as made. Top brim of Julia's nurses hat has added "USA" raised text, one upside down. Darkened patina overall. VF/Exc. Unusual and most likely a unique item. Color image shown is only to reference finished mask, mask is not included.
