Yeah...but I wouldn't consider Toto a prop (and he probably would be offended)😊I didn't think of wearables as props...except something like the shoe that Chaplin eats. I'm really surprised that nobody mentioned 'the black bird'--The Maltese Falcon. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
