p.1 #1 · where to get props?

I am in the Philadelphia area and I am looking for some props for a photograph - old movie reels and/or canisters, movie film celluloid, old movie cameras, lenses or anything that may feel like it may come from the old world Cuban era movie theatre, it's a close up photograph of a cigar so it will be just the edges of these props sticking into the photo. appreciate any suggestions.

Hi Dave,

Philly might have some prop rental houses. Here in NYC, we have quite a few, and the day rates are decent. Not sure if they ship, although they might. Might be more economical for you to drive in to grab them.

Or, eBay. I've scored so much of my prop inventory off eBay and Etsy. Some remain in as is condition, others I modify for my photographs.

Start with Prop and Spoon, in NY.
