As soon as I started reading your words the image jumped into my mind. Oddly the book is on the desk in front of me so I've just given it a butchers and there it is. page 38/39 I've only owned the book since I was ten, an essential bit of kit then and now. I'll search some images. <br /><br />the last suit above was also seen in Doctor who waters of mars and I think its a from a costume hire company that specialises in space suits. I did blog them but its too late to get my brain working properly.....it will come to me.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01906649879585791348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253387388436808262.post-68784184414838686952016-08-11T23:44:44.936-07:002016-08-11T23:44:44.936-07:00I didnt actually realise this show had so many sui...I didnt actually realise this show had so many suits in it,do you know where the suit in the last/bottom pic is originally from?<br />Quite by chance I stumbled across something rather interesting in an old book I was reading,it was a still from 1972s solaris and in that still one could clearly see a spacesuit in a locker,now I`m not able to scan the pic at the moment and I`m not sure where the scene is in the film,I`ll have to look,but I was able to find a partial pic online so you can see for yourself,check out the left of the pic<br />http://www.thedorkreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/solaris-1972-1.jpg<br />And I`ve just found a better pic<br />http://calvertjournal.com/images/uploads/thumbnails/2015_September/Space/_large_crop/url2.jpgTim Armstronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025057648846316965noreply@blogger.com
