No one knows who won the oscar (apart from the the office that tallies the vote) until the envelope is opened live on television. Therefore, as you suggested the oscar is not engraved with the recipient's name when he/she receives it during the ceremony. It is, however, engraved with the title of the award won (like Best Picture or Best Actor). The Academy supplies the recipient with the engraving service after they have received the award on television.
I though they already knew who won before they even get the nomination.
good question. I think they already have them engraved, and ready to go. Maybe locked up somewhere. I think I did hear one time, that they use the same Oscar' all night long.
It's funny.......these days they make copies and sell them on E-Bay. They keep a fake and get large $$$ for the original.
Wanna buy an old Tom Hanks oscar?
