    Description

    Van Williams "Britt Reid" Hornet Stopwatch Communicator and 2-Flashlights from The Green Hornet (TCF-TV, 1966-1967). Vintage original (3) character props including (1) stopwatch gadget constructed of repurposed gold metal commercial pocket watch with 3-faux emeralds set around the perimeter of the casing and a spring-loaded antenna on the right side, which can be deployed by depressing the watch's winding stem. In the series, this watch device could be used as a voice communicator with the "Green Hornet's (Reid) signature car, the "Black Beauty", or to activate a "buzz" signal in "D.A. Scanlon's" (Walter Brooke) glasses. Measuring 3.25" x 2.25" x .05". Also includes (2) signature "Hornet" flashlights constructed of metal cylinders with beacon gumdrop lights at the top ends and swiveling grips at the back. Painted forest green and with one ruby-colored panel on 1-of the deployable grips. Measuring 6.5" long. All items exhibit age, production wear, and light scratches. The watch stem and antenna spring are present and working, but the antenna can't be completely depressed or locked, and the watch stem is loose. Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the Collection of Greg Jein.
