Flash Gordon - Souvenir Movie Program - Published in 1980 by
Famous Film Productions - Softcover (9" x 12") - 20 pages - EXCELLENT
condition. Based on Alex Raymond's King Features Syndicate, Inc. comic strip,
this is an outstanding movie program with scenes from the 1980 Flash Gordon
movie. Flash Gordon conquered virtually all mediums. Originally a super popular
comic strip by the one and only Alex Raymond, Flash Gordon came to the screen
in the 1930s in several serials starring Buster Crabbe. Flash Gordon also
successfully appeared in comic books, had his own radio show in the 1940s, and
television show in the 1950s. This excellent film starred Sam Jones as Flash
Gordon, Max Von Sydow as Ming the Merciless, Melody Anderson as Dale Arden,
Topol as Dr. Zarkov, Timothy Dalton as Prince Vultan and, among others, a young
Robbie Coltrane in an unnamed part. The screenplay was written by Lorenzo
Semple, Jr. (of the Batman TV show fame) and produced by Dino De Laurentiis
("King Kong" 1976, among other great films). The music was composed
and performed by Queen. This great program includes photos of the cast, color
and black & white stills from the film, an excellent article on Alex
Raymond, the creator of Flash Gordon, some outstanding vintage Alex Raymond
Flash Gordon artwork, production information, cast and crew lists and bios and
much more. There is only some very minor edge wear, but this movie program is
still in EXCELLENT condition. No collection of Flash Gordon items is complete
without this great program. Check out the scan for the classic cover. You won't
be disappointed. All previous buyers of my programs have been completely
