Location: Universal Studios Florida – Hollywood
The giant signs billing this store as the largest collection of Betty Boop items in the world leaves little question about the nature of some of the merchandise you’ll find here. In fact, the store's actual name, "Silver Screen Collectibles" only appears in small lettering on a few awnings. However, this gift shop also has a wide assortment of fun classic Hollywood memorabilia, and is a must-see for anyone who swoons just a bit over those sleek black and white pictures of ladies like Audrey. True to it's name, this store dishes up the promised collection of Betty Boop merchandise, including lots of lacy little numbers like camis, nightgowns and sexy little panties. You'll also find mugs, glasses, t-shits, robes, slippers and even signature Betty Boop perfumes.
The far end of the store opens to the Lucy tribute exhibit and the Lucy and Ricky characters wander in from time to time to mingle with shoppers. The Lucy end of the store carries cookie jars, picture frames, figurines and lunch boxes that pay homage to the beloved “I Love Lucy” show. If you want an adorable memento that won’t break the bank, head to the retro fridge and select from the dozens of Lucy magnets available for only $5.95.
The rest of the store features postcards and posters of classic movie celebrities like Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, Audrey Hepburn, and (seeming a little out of place) Sarah Michelle Gellar.
