This is a very rare & hard to find life cast of Dan Aykroyd. This casting is made out of sturdy white hydrocal plaster, with a metal loop attached to the back ready to hang on the wall. It was cast out of the original mold from the movie and television industries. As you can see from the photos, the surface detail is average, and is a great casting off of the actor's face. This casting is a 1/2 Life Cast, meaning the cast is of the face going back to just in front of the ears. Since the mold was taken directly off the actor's face the casting is life size.*I have a Life Cast collection of over 250 celebrities, Movie & Television Stars, and historical greats such as Abe Lincoln, George Washington ETC. If you are interested in a list please let me know, Thank YouThe life casts I sell are not mass produced or pre-casted and put in stock. I am a one man operation and I personally hand cast each life mask per order. Each cast must pass my high standards, no air pockets or surface defects. If I am not satisfied with the finished cast, I throw it out and start over. It is this attention to detail and quality control that sets Classicasts apart from the competition.I start with my original plaster life cast and make a high quality RTV platinum silicone rubber mold. Silicone rubber molds do not shrink, and hold an incredible amount of detail!My next step is pouring the cast. Again I use a high grade gypsum cement called White Hydrocal. I do not use cheap âcastingâ or âpotteryâ plaster. Hydrocal costs a little more but the results are well worth it. After my first coat of bubble free Hydrocal has set, I apply a second coat of Hydrocal that is mixed with a fiber, much like packing straw. This coat reinforces the cast to make it strong and durable, less likely to chip or break, and it allows the cast to be light weight. During this final coat a metal wire loop is embedded into the upper back area so the cast is ready to hang on the wall.I take great care in packing all my life casts. This is a very important step to prevent any damage or breakage during shipping. The life casts are encased in bubble wrap then suspended in the middle of the box by packing peanuts. The box itself is of a thicker cardboard stock, 200 pounds per square inch in a bursting test. Again I pay a little more for these boxes but itâs worth it to prevent any damage during shipping. All of my life casts are guaranteed. If the cast is damaged, lost, or broken during shipping, the buyer has the option to either receive a replacement or be issued a full refund. I stand by all my life casts, and what the buyer sees in my high definition photos, is exactly what they will get when they open the box.Finally I would like to address the subject of Certificates of Authenticity. Because a COA for a life cast isnât worth the paper itâs printed on. I can print up my own COA, and make up some lame limited edition number, but thatâs not really valid is it? None of the life casts you see for sale are authorized by a movie studio, or special effects studio. Or for that matter, none of the life casts are approved for sale by the estates of the celebrities represented. These life casts make their way to the general public without the knowledge of the movie studios, special effects shops, or any other points of origin. So donât be fooled by someone issuing a COA or limited edition number with their life cast, as I said earlier itâs not worth the paper itâs printed on. If a life cast does have a valid COA or valid limited edition number, you can be sure it will be selling for thousands of dollars, not hundreds of dollarsâ¦.buyer beware. read more
