A comprehensive archive of primary photographic material from each production created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. The Supermarionation technology gave lifelike movement to the eerily photogenic puppet characters and startling bravura machines whirling at supersonic speed in the stratosphere and covering limitless vistas in the beautifully envisioned terrain of the future produced for these series. Supported by a layered curtain of bold and realistic sound effects and world-class voice actors, these productions must have been riveting to young juveniles used to the stiff animation then available on American television. With motorized action adventures in exotic locales and a stunning, super-saturated color palette, the virtuoso design elements were dazzling and ingenious. "Thunderbirds Are Go!" Fine to Excellent, with indentations from album rings to some. Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the Collection of Greg Jein.
