Re: Does the leather strap have grooves?

Thank you, sir. That really helps me, a lot. It seems to be evident on the Blu-ray, that they're non-existent. If the grooves really are there, then an IMAX image would definitely show them. Do you know why everyone assumed there were grooves, to begin with? It would be interesting to find out how s...

Does the leather strap have grooves?

I just bought the Indy Blu-ray set, and I'm now able to see details that never really showed up, before. I cannot seem to find a single shot of the strap, which shows any kind of grooves. It appears to be just a plain brown strap. Ever since I can remember, I've always thought there were grooves, th...

Re: Some other accurate hat than Christy's Adventurer ?

I don't think you can go wrong with a Penman. I've been more than pleased with every purchase. He does a style from every film, and they're as screen accurate as any hat I've ever seen.

Confused and in need of four jackets

I've only been a member since March, so up until then my knowledge of screen accuracy was not entirely accurate (a polite way of saying I was extremely ignorant). It's amazing how much I've learned about the gear, props and even the films (which I thought I REALLY knew). I'm trying to acquire four j...

Re: Which film jacket is your favorite?

I voted TOD...but for me it's almost a toss up between that and Raiders. If pressed, I'd have to go with TOD. It's a very tough question, because I do love every incarnation of Indy's outfit.

I have to admit...for some reason, I always thought the on screen bags had smooth snaps. I guess it was just an assumption. I've been looking for a good screen grab to prove this, but still haven't found one. Perhaps when the series is finally released on Blu-Ray, it will become clear...although I h...
