Joe 90

An original puppet scale helmet used in the production of the 1968 Supermarionation television series Joe 90 created by Gerry & Sylvia Anderson.

This puppet scale space helmet can be seen worn by Joe as he takes on the brain patterns of a top astronaut in order to rescue two men aboard a space station in the episode Most Special Astronaut.

Constructed from fibreglass with interior foam padding the helmet lacks the visor with holes visible where it was originally attached, the piece remains in good condition with some minor scratching to the paintwork. A rare example of principal character costume from this highly regarded series.

A very intricately made prop and a testament to the quality of Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation productions.
