Doctor Who And The Silurians
framed head piece

WITHDRAWN

This is an amazing piece - with the anniversary of doctor who, I thought I would offer this absolutely last amazing opportunity from my own personal collection.

This is a fantastic original prop with fantastic provenance. There is only one original 1970 Silurian costume left in existence. When it was being restored, a few small original pieces had to be discarded. This item is from the head and so rare it is unthinkable - I did not intend to sell this, as it is my own I was going to keep, but pressures have forced my hand!

I have only sold two other smaller pieces two years ago and both went for £150.

This comes displayed in a display frame and will be supplied with certifcate of provenence confirming its authenticity.

AMAZING 3rd Doctor item on eBay

A couple of months ago there was an amazing original Auton Mask on eBay.

Things like that don’t come up very often, so it’s amazing now to see this . . .

Doctor Who And The Silurians

SOLD FOR £310

Vintage Doctor WHO original tv PROP'!

' SILURIAN ' Full face Mask in LATEX from the 1970s -this is just so cool and its in great condition

this one has no splits or tears and the colours are still really good and the eyes are bright ...

On 24-Nov-13 at 23:07:16 GMT, seller added the following information:
Please read .............we are getting lots and lots of questions about this -so rather than try and answer them all we have added this-

and we will be as honest as we can about it....

This mask came to us from a very avid collector of Doctor Who . His collection consisted of very rare items many of them were signed by the actors themselves and several photos amongst the collection showed him with them. This mask was from the same collection and we have hung onto it until now because it is just so impressive ......it was nice to have on display for a while ............

many questions have asked about provenance...

No- it does not have a BBC stamp on the back and there is no letter of provenance with it

All we can say is .....we believe it to be a prop , it is extremely well made, far too good to be a toy .

As the photos show , the detail is fantastic......we took more photos than usual to let you see it and make up your own minds ........

The size is for an adult, and measures top to bottom- 50cms in length and 40 cms width and it weighs 800 grms.

so we hope this helps , as we say , in our honest opinion - knowing its source etc -we believe it to be a tv prop ...................but at the end of the day - it is sold as seen and as described.

we are not trying to deceive anyone in any way -so please -only bid -if you are happy with what you see in the photos and our description

Doctor Who Celebration - costume exhibition

This weekend’s Doctor Who Celebration has been a feast for the eyes for fans.

As well as catering for those who have come to Who through the relaunch series, there has been a good nod to the history of the show with a wide variety of guests and an extensive exhibition of costumes culled from Cardiff’s Doctor Who Experience.

They had a near complete set of Doctor’s costumes on show (missing was the Eighth and War Doctors) arranged in a circle around Bessie.

The Third Doctor costume on show was not the same as in The Experience. This was the purple lined Inverness cape (rather than red) and it was the burgundy smoking jacket (rather than midnight blue.

Other items from the Third Doctor era included the original Bessie, which has recently been on display in The Experience foyer.

There was also a Dalek, in a colour scheme which I think debuted in Planet Of The Daleks.


The one thing I saw which was a stand-out Third Doctor item for me was amongst the Time Lord robes display. It included a version seen in The Three Doctors back in 1973.

Radio Times - 50th anniversary issue covers

The 50th Anniversary week is almost here, and as expected the cover of the latest Radio Times features The Doctor - not just once, but TWLEVE times!

The sources of the images used are quite interesting, the majority of which are from the Radio Times own extensive archive of Doctor Who images. All are out-takes, so are being published for the first time.

The First and Second Doctors come from the 10th Anniversary Special published by the Radio Times in 1973. The Third Doctor comes from a photoshoot in 1970 for the launch of Jon Pertwee in the role.

The Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Doctors are pictured from the shoot for the 30th Anniversary special, which featured in the 1993 Children In Need.

This shows that they were all taken separately before being composited into the group on the cover.

The rest of the Doctors come from bespoke cover shoots done for the Radio Times in more recent years. For example the Ninth Doctor is from the gatefold cover which launched the new series in 2005; and the Tenth from The Next Doctor in 2008. The Eleventh and War Doctors are obviously newly taken.

Here’s the full size version of the Third Doctor’s cover.

Finally, have you noticed that all 12 covers join together to form a long single image?
