DREAMHELMET trivia:
Believe it or not!!
The DREAMHELMET sleep mask was actually "dreamed up" by its inventor, Jim de Cordova, in 1998, while sleeping on a sailboat. He awoke while dreaming about the DREAMHELMET and sketched the first plans before the vision faded from his mind.
Used as a pillow Worn "pharaoh" style
The DREAMHELMET is the first and only combination pillow, sleep mask, and sound block device ever to be patented in the United States.
The sleep masks for the first experimental DREAMHELMET prototypes were made using blackout cloth left behind by the Lorimar Productions camera crew after filming a movie at a property in Los Angeles owned by de Cordova. The name of the movie was Heat From Another Sun, starring Robert Forster. The building itself was owned before de Cordova by the well known actor and comedian, Joe E. Brown, who once performed at the Schubert Theatres in New York.
Used as a muff - connect mask and strap to inside Velcro strip
Jim de Cordova's great-great grandfather Jacob de Cordova, along with his brother, Joshua, founded the main newspaper of Jamaica, The Gleaner, in 1834; it is still in business - the oldest independent newspaper in the Western Hemisphere. Jacob went on to explore, and make the first accurate map of, Texas, serve in the Texas Legislature, and own more than a million acres in Texas, including in the county where President George Bush's ranch is now located. Jacob founded the city of Waco, Texas, among many other exploits. Waco's main bridge across the Brazos River was built by the same company that built the Brooklyn Bridge in New York.

Jim de Cordova is related to the famous late Hollywood producer, Fred de Cordova, through their Jamaican family. Fred produced The Tonight Show, starring Johnny Carson and later worked with Jay Leno. Fred was originally from New York City where he was a friend of the Schubert (theatre) family.
On January 4, 1999, a woman actually fell asleep on the stage of The Howie Mandel Show wearing a DREAMHELMET sleep mask, given to her as a birthday gift by actor and comedian Howie Mandel. She had to be awakened to go back to her seat to see the rest of the show . Howie's studio was in the same building in Burbank, California, as that of Johnny Carson and Jay Leno. Jim de Cordova grew up and went to school in Burbank.
