Thanks. What kind of gold plate process is it and what kind of material is cast- regular urethane or resin, or something special which can be electroplated? (I've heard that the gold props in Raiders were done by "vacuum metallization" but I can't find what the underlying cast material was.) Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks again.

: It is gold plated. You can have that done at a place that plates, BUT it's very expensive, especially for just one. I am working on having a few done. I will post when I am ready to do it. A few lucky people will be able to have one at a decent price.

Also, any plans to more clearly scan their photos and post on a website? There needs to be a permanent archival record of these items...perhaps burning everything on a DVD for posterity (they only cost $20 now)?
