At the start of February I ventured to Universal Studios Hollywood to peruse the latest movie and TV memorabilia on display within the theme park's NBC Universal Experience exhibit from the company's extensive film and television archives.

As well as original outfits and stop-motion puppets from more recent movies and TV shows, there was also a selection of costumes from real cinematic golden oldies on display.
