1408, Dolphin Hotel New York sign

original movie prop

This is a large, heavy metal sign made for the entrance way to the 'Dolphin Hotel' where room 1408 is. It's actually a 1/8" thick metal sign with the printing carved into it and then painted with black paint. Pretty impressive for a prop only seen quickly from a distance... (They made at least two, there's one on each side of the entrance.)

The second image shows a couple of screen caps from the movie with the sign visible mounted on the wall outside the main entrance to the hotel.
