Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea (TV) Dragonfly Monster Head Prop
Most of the grand TV Sci-Fi classics owe their allegiance to Irwin Allen who basically invented the genre of outrageous creatures with buggy eyes and rubber suits. In a more innocent time before CGI, the special effects had a look that came from our own imagination rather then cold computer wizardry which is why these shows still hold up today. The classic TV series "Voyage To The Bottom Of the Sea" (1964-1968) was based on Allen's own 1961 hit feature, and usually had a rubber monster of the week, which everyone looked forward to. This is such a monster. Known as "Dragonfly" this is a studio casting from the original mold of the screen used head of that reptilian "Creature from the Black Lagoon" type alien with the huge buggy eyes seated on top of its head. Made of latex, it is in excellent condition, and is an impressive display piece as well as great classic TV memorabilia! (Approx. 15"x9"x12").
