On The Auction Block

The Second BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Props & Costumes Auction has been announced on the Propworx website this week:

The second Battlestar Galactica Live Auction will be held May 8-10th at the Pasadena Convention Center. The second and last of the two live auctions will be bigger and better than the last. This time the event will be held in the new Convention Hall “B”, a state of the art convention facility with even more room than before. Preview Day will be Thursday, May 7th from 10:00am to 6:00pm.

Highlights of the auction will be:

1) 975 lots of props, costumes & set pieces. Last auction had 800 lots, so we have more Galactica goodies for you to bid on. 325 lots a day will be auctioned off, which is 75 less than we auctioned off each day in the first auction. So while we have a lot more items, we will have a slower, more leisurely pace.

2) The Hero Viper Mk II and the Blackbird will both be up for auction and on display! Come and get your picture taken next to these Galactica legends!

3) Wayne Rose, Battlestar Galactica Director and Production Manager, who is the “UnKnown Soldier” in the famous Galactica photo, will be at the auction, signing copies of this piece of the Galactica legend.

4) Preview Day will once again have special guests who will be annouced shortly!


Great news about copies of "The Unknown Soldier" print being made available for sale. I've heard some rumors this winter about the possibility that Adama's First Cylon War painting may also be reproduced for sale to fans.

Meanwhile, below are a few choice goodies that went live on the weekly eBay Auction this past week and run till this Friday…

I read the article about the Unknown Soldier print, but it doesn't say anything about copies.

@martel...that article is old. The new announcement (at the top of my post) is recent and indicates Wayne will sign prints...
