I like it when King Arthur sang MacArthur Park and used Excalibur to cut a slice of cake before it melted in the dark.
Actually, Richard Harris played a lot of great roles from King Arthur to Cromwell to Marcus Aurelius.

I have an *exact* copy of William Wallace’s sword from the movie ‘Braveheart’. Made of halfway decent steel, I think.

OMG; the ultimate iconic baby-boomer guy's wanna buy auction item. . . Superman's cape and belt buckle from the original George Reeves 1950s TV show Superman! Included is the muscled padded underware. LOL! Now the high bidder can really be Superman!
Description: 950. George Reeves Superman belt buckle, cape, and muscle undersuit. (NBC, 1952-1958) This iconic red fabric cape was worn by Reeves in his still-definitive small screen portrayal of the Man of Steel after production of the 1950s series switched from black and white to color. The red and yellow felt S insignia patch at back face of cape is a vintage 1970s replica created by Western Costume Co. Includes an original 3 x 2 in. Superman oval brass belt buckle with small double holes for affixing to belt on top, bottom and sides. Also includes a muscle under-suit constructed of a durable synthetic satin-like fabric with sculpted rubber torso, suggesting muscular pectoral, abdominal and bicep muscles, and integral stretch fabric sleeves. Marked, Doug, twice on the interior, possibly from a subsequent production. Cape exhibits only minor age and wear. Muscle under-suit rubber remains supple. Exhibiting cracking to shoulders, arms, and body, tears at under-arm vents, holes to fabric sleeves, and staining to exterior chest and interior. Cape in production used fine condition. Muscle suit in production used good condition. This instantly recognizable cape comes with a copy of an LOA from Western Costume Co. dated in 1975. Muscle suit originally from the collection of special effects wizard Thol Simonson. $15,000 - $20,000

Superman's cape and belt buckle from the original George Reeves 1950s TV show Wow, the "S" logo looks like it was made from ordinary craft felt a housewife could buy in a fabric store.
You can see a seam across the lower part of the cape, because most yard goods did not come in wide sizes then except for bedsheet fabric. Strange that they did not construct the seams lengthwise.
Then again, the show was in B&W, wasn't it? And on the tiny screens of the times. So who could even see those details, or even the color.
