The Munsters Screen-Used Prop – Dinner Bell w/ (2) Spoons COA Provenance

Description

The Munsters is an American sitcom depicting the home life of a family of benign monsters starring Fred Gwynne as Frankenstein’s monster-type head-of-the-household Herman Munster; Yvonne De Carlo as his vampire wife, Lily Munster; Al Lewis as Grandpa, the over-the-hill vampire who relishes talking about the “good old days”; Beverley Owen (later replaced by Pat Priest) as their teenage niece Marilyn Munster, whose all-American beauty made her the family outcast; and Butch Patrick as their half-vampire, half-werewolf son Eddie Munster. The series was a satire of both traditional monster movies and the wholesome family fare of the era, and was produced by the creators of Leave It to Beaver. The popular show lasted 70 episodes for a total of two seasons.

Presented from a collection of Munsters screen used prop items is this lot: two spoons and a dinner bell. The bell is the highlight as who doesn’t want to be summoned to the Munsters’ dinner table? The other items described by the provenance are a gothic (style) spoon and an ornate (style) spoon. Both show tarnish from age/storage. These items were used in the television production of Munsters and includes a certificate of authenticity from the Shadow House Collectibles in regards to provenance. The bell does not have a Shadow House COA but is from the same collection of the featured Munsters items in auction.
