Burt Gummer Glasses

My long standing fascination - some might even say fixation - with the Tremors films, and in particular Burt Gummer, found great outlet in a recent eBay auction which has sadly elapsed. It was a 'live auction' which are always sort of mysterious and shady, and it was for a screen-worn pair of Burt Gummer Ray-Ban sunglasses from Tremor's 3. I at least made an effort towards this sale, but was rudely trumped by apparently the only other bidder! Looks like they missed their estimate of "$100-$25,000" by $30...oops.

Just as well I suppose, as it was pretty suspicious as to the authenticity of any of the props that seller offered, validated mainly by the volume of supposed authentic memorabilia up for auction at once. At least now it's possible to just save the picture from the listing, and make sure to track down that exact pair, further lending movie-correctness to my most favorite of costumes.

In "things I certainly didn't need to buy" news, the pinball mission was successful this early morning, and pictures will be forthcoming.
