This golden ticket is my recreation of the one used in the original 1971 movie with Gene Wilder. It measures approximately 6.25 x 3.25 inches and will fit inside the wrapper of a Hershey 4.4 oz candy bar.

Printed on double sided thick gold foil paper, the ticket has a shiny gold mirror finish which is reflective. This is much prettier in person. My camera can't really capture the gold paper well. The 3rd image is a screen shot of the ticket in the movie, and the paper I print on is almost an exact match. I will handcut around the edges for the scalloped effect also. Last photo shows this ticket along with the modern ticket available in another of our listings.

Unlike our regular listing where just the time and date is customizable, you may change the text to anything you like as long as it has the same amount of characters/spaces as the original (394 or less). Many people use these to ask someone to marry him or her, to go to prom, or to let someone know of a special vacation coming up. The options are limitless!

Please copy the originl text below and paste it into a convo to us with your changes:
