Outland

This large technical drawing was created and utilised during the production of Outland, the 1981 science fiction thriller starring Sean Connery.

Accomplished on tracing paper and hand drawn by John Markwell these are the original design and assembly plans for the landing pad gantry gearbox which was built for the movie. Showing various elevations the plans are highly detailed technical drawings referencing the inner workings. The plans are dated 25-3-80, some 14 months prior to the eventual release.

The drawing displays some tearing from use and/or storage and is in overall good rolled condition, it measures a massive 50" x 30".
