A Leg Lamp used in A Christmas Story still exists after all.

Do you believe this is really a Leg Lamp from the movie?

If anyone out there can help track down the eBay seller 'castelocat' from over 20 years ago please let us know. All of us would love to know the fate of this Leg Lamp.

There were rumors of this eBay listing many years ago but they faded into obscurity. This listing came to us from Mike Poole who bid on it back on 2001 long before the movie was as popular as it is today. It had has long been said that none of the Leg Lamps had survived but it now seem that least one did.

Watching the movie, A Christmas Story is a tradition in our family. Growing up in Cleveland (where the film was shot), I love seeing all the scenes of my hometown.

This model is a LEGO recreation of the famous leg lamp featured in the movie. Originally this MOC was designed using a large-scale Minifigure leg as the leg, but none of my non-LEGO friends got the joke, so I redid the leg portion to make it more realistic.

It found its way home. The Holy Grail of Christmas Gifts. An Official-Red-Ryder-Range Model-Air-Riffle-With-A-Compass-In-The-Stock-And-This-Thing-That-Tells-Time used in the filming of A Christmas Story.

With the help of Tyler Schwartz of www.retrofestive.ca we authenticated and purchased this piece of Cinematic Christmas History from Mike in Etobicoke, Canada whose uncle worked on the film back in ‘83. This prop has been at their family cottage ever since. It’s in rough shape because it’s been played with for almost 40 years. Tyler will take the lead in restoration for display at www.retrofestive.ca and before it arrives at A Christmas Story House.

You can follow its journey and restoration at RetroFestive Pop Culture & Christmas Store.

A Very Merry Christmas to All.

"In our world, you were either a bully, a toady, or one of the nameless rabble of victims." - Ralphie

We have been getting a lot of mixed feelings about how things should have been managed. What we all need to understand is everyone is human. Brian is human, the tour guides are human, and everyone else works behind the scenes to make the house an enjoyable experience year-round for everyone to enjoy. So please, let’s make this a Christmas season of joy for everyone.

Below is a link to the renovations to get the house from what it was to where is now. Without Brians inspiration this would not be possible.
