Hornet Mask

Post by GMartin58 »

Hi Gang...Does anyone have any idea what Van's original GH mask was made out of? I know there were several variations. I'm just curious what might have been used back in 1966.

I think it was posted in one of the discussion threads here. From what I remember they made life casts of Van and Bruce Lee, then made the masks out of fiberglass.

Found a link to the history: http://apennyworth.batcave.net/greenhornet/ghmasks.html

I'll do some searching but that's about what I suspected. Thanks.

I have a couple of leather GH masks that I made as first attempts. Not perfect, but if you'd like one as a prototype I'd be happy to send you one. Just DM me your address.
