Bilbo Bogart is an alias occasionally employed by Gregg Turkington in official duties for the Victorville Film Archives.
The alias was first used during the 9th Annual Our Cinema Oscar Special, when Gregg posed as Mr. Bogart to contact Axiom on behalf of the “Hollywood Memories Network,” a fictional TV network. The goal was to demonstrate that Axiom, at that point advertised as the HEI Network as “Mister Movies,” had little to no movie expertise.
His name has been featured on several official VFA certificates. VFA Certificates of Expertise are signed by Mr. Bogart, in his capacity as the chairman of the VFA Certification Committee. He also signed the Certificate of Authenticity for the Oscar Special 11 Challenge Coins as President of Memorabilia Authentication.
