BSG Props Ballot Box with Set of 4 Election Ballots

Production made wood ballot box painted to appear metal, with metal handles screwed in on the sides and a metal latch with lock hole in front. The box itself does not open as it is all one piece. Features a torn, partial, black and white label from the Colonial ship “Odeon”. Only the “O” and “D” are visible. The piece features yellow and black safety tape that has been distressed, as if the box was opened. The box measures 12″ × 14″ × 20¼″. The ballots are production-made presidential election ballots. They have been folded to protect the voter’s anonymity. Ballots measure 4″ × 7¾″.
