My late father, Len Murray, inherited the original gold statuette, after the death of William Murray's widow. william Murray was his uncle). My parents were invited by Oscar Heidenstam to the 1974 Mr Universe contest in London, where the original gold trophy was shown to the audience. Health and Strength Magazine, vol.103 no.9, edited by Oscar, has photographs of my parents, Margaret and Len Murray with Paul Getty, and also of NABBA president Jimmy Savile holding the statuette. My father later sold the gold original on to Steve Reeves. It is good to know that the statuette has been restored and is well cared for.
