Space:1999 costumes

[19narvik40]

There was a small one day event called Calgary:1999 celebrating the 50th year since the series first aired. Nick Tate (Alan Carter),Yasuko Nagazumi ( Yasko, 2nd season) and David Hirsch who wrote the Starlog Moonbase Alpha Technical Manual way back when were the celebrity guests as well as two actual filming models of the Eagle. I brought along my 40 year old season 1 security costume on a manniquin as I no longer fit into it. There were a few other fellow cosplayers that attended as well. I found the space suit particularily worthy. Sadly there were a few more that I missed . Please excuse the photography, I am by no means a professional,

I wish I could have went. In my mind's eye-I could see the 1999 crew in Moonraker' station waving at TMP's Enterprise.

There is a celebration planned for London next year, perhaps you could catch that one.
