Item Description
16x23.25" heavy artboard w/brown paper overlay features original art used on the box of the "Cylon Raider" ship produced by Mattel as part of their popular 1978 "Battlestar Galactica" toyline. Mixed media art by Otto Kuhni, who worked from the 1960s until his death in 2017, including some projects for Mattel that predate his involvement w/Hot Wheels (for which he is predominantly known) in 1967 and the "Battlestar Galactica" toyline in the 1970s. Art features two Cylon Raider ships in space flight, w/star-filled bkg. showing three planets. Art was slightly altered for final box design, showing the ships' missiles in flight. Art is o/w exactly the same as final box design. Image area measures 13x19.25" and margins have some production notations at bottom, including strip of tape w/Mattel name and numbers. Artboard has some corner tip wear and scattered margin aging and is Fine/VF overall, but art remains bright, clean and would display NM if matted and framed. See AFA graded Cylon Raider (item #1967) and box proof (item #1966). 1970s action figure and related packaging original art is highly sought after and rarely comes up for sale. A must for the "Battlestar Galactica" fan. From the Kuhni Estate.
