Original 5th Doctor items on eBay - November 2013

The first item on eBay this month is a pair of armour pieces from Snakedance.

These are very similar to a set sold back in February.

Snakedance
Guard Armour

Original guard armour from the 1983 Doctor Who serial Snakedance starring Peter Davison as The Doctor.

These two armour pieces, see worn by the guards, are constructed from fibreglass with mosaic detailing and have been hand painted, two leather laces either side were used to keep the armour in place.

Cast in two sections and bonded together these were created specifically for this story by the BBC.

Each armour piece measures 5.5" x 4.5" and both are in excellent condition with some minor wear from production use.

Accompanied by a COA from thepropgallery.com

Caves of Androzani
Trooper uniform
SOLD FOR £1,176

Original trooper costume, jacket and trousers, as used and seen on screen from the 1984 Peter Davison story The Caves of Androzani voted the number one Doctor Who story of all time by the readers of Doctor Who Magazine.

Originally bought by myself at Doctor Who Convention Blue Box 2 in 1994.

Added 6/11/13 21:10

Additional photos added as requested, hand written in trousers "Alan Talburt 34W" (yes I know different spelling to jacket).

In answer to numerous emails I do not intend to put a buy it now price or to do a deal outside ebay, I intend to let the auction run its full duration.

I appreciate the interest in any other costumes or props I have, dependant on how this item goes I may list another item or 2 in my own time, if anyone would like the heads up on this send me your email and I'll let you know if I'm going to sell anything when I decide.

With regards to any proof of pedigree, I bought this at a Dr Who action nearly 20 years ago for cash, there were no receipts or auction catalogues, I believe that the auctioneer was John Nathan Turner (JNT) long standing producer of Dr Who along with David Roden who co-wrote the Dimensions in Time special in 1993, the convention was in May1994.
Hope this helps.
