CLASSIC MERCHANDISE: 'GALACTICA's BIG SCREEN EXCITEMENT!


All the excitement, action, and epic storytelling of that first Battlestar Galactica adventure on the big screen would be effectively showcased within the colourful, image-packed pages of this lovely international theatrical program for the film available in cinemas back in 1978, with now iconic cover art by Robert Tanenbaum

I remember my mum purchasing a copy for me when we saw the film in Sensurround at the once prestigious Empire Leicester Square Theatre, London, back in the day. Even better, the program also had rare images from the then unseen in the UK adventures Gun on Ice Planet Zero and Lost Planet of the Gods. which whetted my hungry appetite for more Galactica adventures that I hoped would come to the big screen.

It's an item of warm nostalgia I still treasure to this day...
