Met Andrew Robertshaw today, who was the technical advisor to Sam Mendes on the film 1917.
Got this from him.
A decent resin No 5 / No 23 film prop grenade. designed to be seen from a distance so, don't be too critical. I expect anything seen in close up was the real thing.
Maybe in canvas carriers or something - certainly brief images ? A lot of detail to take in one one viewing -
I read that the helmets were made up 8% larger that originals as they thought our heads are bigger now
and the original size would look small. Hopefully they are easy to identify or 40 years on havoc in the market !
++Added comment, thank goodness they are resin ! they certainly looked good. All the personal kit looked good too,
that wear on the 1914 kit and it will also look great. But as this thread is in the Grenade section as it took a turn
from grenades I won't add to it any further here.
