The one-of-kind item must become a type, a replicable role-icon of itself--from \"a Charles Hart\" or \"a Nell Gwyn\" to \"a Mary Pickford\" or \"a Douglas Fairbanks\"--in order to unleash the Pygmalion effect in the hearts and minds of the fans, making the idea of him or her theirs--as much or more than anything else they might call their own.”",
