Planet of the Apes

An original transparency from the production of Planet of the Apes, the classic 1968 science fiction picture starring Charlton Heston and Roddy McDowall under the direction of Franklin J. Schaffner.

This is an original 4" x 5" large format positive transparency on Kodak film created by the studio during the production of the movie. The reference image shows a wardrobe test of a chimp wearing costume designed by Morton Haack and special make-up effects by John Chambers, the studio board bearing information to the left is dated April 1967 during pre-production of the movie.

The transparency remains in very good vintage original condition with colour shift, otherwise very fine.

A fine artefact from this production of this classic science fiction picture.
