UFO

An original storyboard used in the production of UFO, the 1970 science fiction series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson.

This is an original special effects storyboard for the episode The Cat with Ten Lives broadcast in September 1970. This production used copy was taken from the original rendering and features an illustration of the Venus probe and the Moonbase Interceptors with a description of the action below and a list of requirements to the side which details the use of roller backing, space sky, the Venus probe and Interceptor miniatures. This was utilised by the miniature effects team during filming and was obtained from the estate of special effects production manager Ken Holt who worked alongside noted director of special effects Derek Meddings.

The storyboard measures 13" x 8" and remains in good vintage condition with some pinholes to the top from use during the production and some minor paper loss to the corners, otherwise fine.

An extremely rare example of original production material from this classic Anderson series.
