As we're now entering the fiftieth year of Space:1999's first broadcast in the UK, well, actually it was September, 1975, but I don't need much of an excuse to blog about the series.
Anyway, here's some photos of my small collection of Space: 1999 publicity brochures, the ephemera that would have been given out a various press junkets.
The first is what I think is the brochure that would have been given out in the UK. It folds out, and curiously, it uses that same loge that was used on the Lyons Maid Space:1999 promotional card set. The brochure is about the same size as a long player record, and came in a card envelope, with the same logo on it.
The second brochure was used for the American and Canadian market. It's big, brash, and impressive.
It 's printed on glossy card, and contains several pages featuring large photos and fold out sections.
I like those!
ReplyDeleteThey are nice, Kev. They took a bit of tracking down and finding then at reasonable prices , but I'm glad to have them.
