The Lebowski Mirror

There was a time when a subscription to TIME magazine came with a few additional perks, such as this handy-dandy telephone and Rolodex combo. Along those lines, the Coen brothers' 1998 movie The Big Lebowski features an imitation TIME product: a "Man of the Year" mirror that hangs in millionaire Jeffrey Lebowski's office. Fans of the film can even buy real TIME mirrors online, complete with the "Are You a Lebowski Achiever?" headline. They aren't TIME products, though; they're movie-prop knockoffs.

(Sadly, the Rolodex phones have been discontinued.)
