Well, it is definitely an odd item to buy, but I can’t say I wouldn’t have done something similar. I’m pretty sure if I found one of Bruce Campbell, I’d consider buying it…
You should review The Time Guardian, a 1987 Australian Terminator rip-off starring Dean Stockwell and Carrie Fisher. I use the term “starring” loosely, because neither of them is in the movie for very long (they could probably only afford them for a few days). The real stars are a couple of Aussie actors nobody has ever heard of or cares about. It’s stupid, cheesy, has bad acting, bad dialogue, bad special effects, a plot that makes absolutely no sense, and the first ten minutes are so under lit it’s almost impossible to tell what’s going on.
The show it was meant for might not even have had (or been meant to have) Dean Stockwell in it; maybe it was intended to just be a weird background thing for a character who was a fan of his or something.
Have you considered contacting Dean Stockwell to see if he remembers it? OK, he may well not remember or just not reply, but it could help solve the mystery.
Have you tried contacting Dean Stockwell directly (well, via electronic media, don’t doorstep his home)? OK, pretty good odds he either won’t respond or just won’t remember, but I’d have thought it’s worth a try (it’d be a fairly unusual piece of fan mail, so I’d reckon the odds of an answer would be reasonable).

I’d say you’ve gone way off the deep end, but… That would imply that I wouldn’t do the same if it was a lint portrait of Martian Manhunter.
Please don’t say you’re sorry for who you are and what you love!
We watch your videos because we like you exactly the way you are.
This video made me smirk a lot!! Please never grow up!!
PS: I love Quantum Leap, too! Great show!

What a delightful story. ^.^
Never be sorry to be who you are.

You did a good thing buying this. Sometimes you just act on weird before reason!
Well Phelan, the gauntlet is thrown. Gotta show her with some Quantum Leap bootleg! Or something… Whatever… 😉
Seriously though this quite an imposing portrait, will you keep it on the Movie Nights set?
Having indulged myself before, I understand you totally. The uniqueness in its making is certainly a major plus and I hope it brings you lot of joy.

You so owned that opening :). I love how you have the look of someone who just discovered they conquered the world for the entire video.
And I love your surfing motion
I did not know dryer lint art was a thing
The cat hair was a sign you should have picked it up
This was a lovely video!! So nice!
