BSG Baltar’s Blood Vials and Blood Slides

The set consists of 32 test tubes in a rack, all of which are labeled “Picon Labs” and are seen prominently in the scenes in Season One where Baltar is testing for Cylons. Each test tube has fake blood in it, with the exception of one, which features a clear fluid (probably water). There is also a glass slide holder, with 44 slides, all of which are labeled “Human Blood Smear Cylon Screen”. Plastic test tube rack measures 4″ × 9½″ × 3″. Test Tubes each measure 4″ × ½″ with rubber stoppers and filled with red fluid. The slide box is plastic and measures 7″ × 8½″ × 1½″. Each slide measures 1″ × 3″.
