Oddjob is the manservant of Auric Goldfinger, James Bond's antagonist in 1964's GOLDFINGER. Oddjob is a formidable character - extremely strong, skilled in martial arts and in possession of a deadly weapon, his black bowler hat. THE REPLICA The Factory Entertainment Oddjob Hat prop replica was created after careful study of the remaining original SFX hat with the embedded rim in the EON Productions archives, as well as reference photographs and original production drawings. The original archive hat was hand-measured, and a 3D model was created from these measurements in order to create wooden molds, or 'forms' that were then used to press and stretch woolen felt into the correct shapes. Historically, bowler hats were designed to afford some protection to the heads of gamekeepers, so they were made from thick durable material. The Factory Entertainment team duplicated this, commissioning a special ultra-heavyweight felt material that is even tougher than its 1960's forebears. The metal rims of the original props would only have needed to adhere to the hats for short takes. The Factory Entertainment team wanted their replica to last a long time, and after experimenting with many different options and prototypes, the team developed a method that includes both mechanical and chemical bonding to invisibly and permanently fix the two different materials together. The Oddjob Hat replica also features the following screen-accurate details: - Black edging ribbon and a satin hat band on the exterior. - A satin liner and a leather band on the interior. - Laser cut brushed stainless steel metal ring. - Hat size -- 7 3/8" (58cm) hat size. Each replica includes a museum-style mirrored display base with an acrylic cover, specially designed magnetic supports and an individually numbered metal plaque bearing the unique edition number of each piece and a COA (certificate of authenticity) booklet. Limited to 1,000 pieces. This replica is intended for display only. Never attempt to throw this replica.
