Basil Fawlty mailday - my all-time non-sports fave :-)

[Matty76]

Hi!

Well, I would scarcely have believed that this type of thing would be available anywhere in the world - HOWEVER

Artist Proof of the famous "Don't mention the war" scene from Fawlty Towers, with entire dialogue beginning with: "Don't mention the war.....I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it alright" to "Who won the bloody war anyway?!". Signed by John Cleese, with certificate of ownership.

There is also one available of the "Gourmet Night" scene where he bashes the Christ out of his car............

Thanks for looking

WOW! From one of my favourite shows and probably my favourite episode......love it! Amazing that there were only 12 episodes made!

One of the best shows ever!

Thanks guys, and like a dickhead I AGAIN forgot to say where I got it from:

www.originalmemorabilia.co.uk

The unframed print cost me $136.01, was wrapped beautifully and was here within two weeks.

Thanks guys, now hanging on my bedroom wall. I kept saying to Dad "lower.........lower.........up a bit!" a la Sybil Fawlty but bailed out pretty quick

I read somewhere that John Cleese is doing a lot of memorabilia items to help pay for his divorce settlement....or something along those lines! Very nice pick-up btw!
