Currently on auction is this life mask of Bela Lugosi. It is cast in polyurethane and is listed as made in the 1970s. Considering the date is well past Lugosi's death, it is obviously taken from a pre-existing mold or cast. The image appears to be taken of him from around the time of 1948s ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN.
Believe that we read (a good many years back) that "Forry" gave permission for a special copy of the "life-mask" which he owned.
