This prop campaign badge was used in Director Peter Weir’s American Psychological Comedy Film starring Jim Carey. The metal badge measures 3 inches in diameter & includes a central motif of Truman Burbank (Jim Carey) within an outer ‘Free Truman’ slogan. Badges of this kind were created for the scenes of the Film which see Sylvia (Natascha McElhone) join an activist group called ‘Free Truman’ in order to cancel the show & have Truman released. The badge remains in fine condition with some minor wear on the reverse from use on set. Provenance: This prop was originally gifted to a member of the Production Crew. Accompanies a Certificate of Authenticity.
