PROPERTYMASTERSGUILD.ORG 13 feel that collaboration in the friendship and working relationship you've shared with Brad over the years. To wrap things up, here's a question I always like to ask. As someone who has spent a lifetime helping create so many memorable moments in film and television, if you could own or even just hold in your hands for a moment any prop from movie or TV history, what would it be? And it does not have to be Muppet related. DAVE: Boy … that's a tough one. You know, Brad actually gave me a prop once that I treasure. I have it here in my office. It's the star from Gonzo's dressing room door straight from the set. Brad made it in the workshop and gave it to me when we wrapped. It's honestly one of my favorite possessions. PROP CULTURE: Dave, thank you again for taking the time to speak with us. Your stories, insight, and generosity made this a truly fascinating conversation, and I especially appreciate the respect you've always shown for the role props and Property Masters play in bringing these characters and worlds to life. It's also genuinely touching that the piece you treasure most was something Brad personally made for you. That says a great deal about both the collaboration and the friendship behind the work. DAVE: Thank you! I really enjoyed reminiscing with you. This was really a pleasure. Bye-bye.
