Having been in the antique iron beds business for 40 years, I’ve been fortunate to have supplied quite a few studios and set designers with iron beds over the years.
So even though I know the film or TV show , where the majority of my beds end up……. it’s always nice when a customer of one of my children bring to my attention or send me a photo of the bed we supplied.
The scrolled twin size bed in this photo was done for the 1995 movie “Casper” by Amblin Entertainment. The little girl on the floor is a young Christina Ricci.
I can remember taking my daughter to see the movie when it came out. When she saw the antique iron bed in the movie and found out it was one that I had supplied them with….. my status with her went up a few notches.
As she and her sister have grown up. They still like pointing out iron beds and asking if it’s one we supplied the studio with.
