Flash Gordon

Flash Gordon, figurines and spaceship, Premier Products, USA,
1952
Pioneers of Sci-Fi TV shows in the 50ies (after having already a very big audience through the comics of the newspapers in the 30ies and 40ies), Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers were the best known space heroes of all.

It is no wonder they remained at the top when TV stations began battling for audience rates.

Lots of products were made of both heroes. Here a set of Flash Gordon spacemen and Rocket from Premier Products in New York.
