<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 2242164, member: 1476"]Sure, why not. The challenge, of course, is you're researching a movie set so the decor wasn't organic. And important to remember it was a low budget film. FI suspect the bathroom used old fixtures for budget reasons. The typical 1950s bathroom featured sinks incorporated into counters, built-in tubs and lots of tile all of which would have made a period bathroom expensive to create for a B movie. Those bathroom fixtures would have come out of a prop warehouse. And they were probably used in a lot of the studio films. If you have a good eye, bet you can find them elsewhere.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]255941[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
