The piece features yellow and black safety tape and an art department label for the “Kimba Hutu” that have been distressed, as if the box was opened. Box measures 12″ × 14″ × 20¼″.

Provenance

Taken directly from the set of the NBC/Universal production, Battlestar Galactica, by Propworx staff.

Used to collect ballots for the election between Gaius Baltar and President Roslin in Season Two’s episode, “Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II.” This ballot box comes from the spaceship “Kimba Hutu.” After a conspiracy was uncovered to rig the election in Roslins favor, Baltar was announced as President-elect.
