An original helmet used in the production of the 1980's cult classic film Flash Gordon.
This style of helmet can be seen worn by the citizens of Mongo that are seated behind Flash Gordon's execution chair.
The helmet is made from fibreglass, painted blue with hand applied decoration to the front, back and edges.
It remains in a good production used condition with additional wear from use.
Flash Gordon is a 1980 English-Dutch-American space opera film based on the King Features comic strip of the same name created by Alex Raymond.
It stars Sam J. Jones, Melody Anderson, Topol, Max von Sydow, Timothy Dalton, Brian Blessed and Ornella Muti. The movie was co-written by Michael Allin (known for Enter the Dragon) and Lorenzo Semple Jr. (who had previously scripted De Laurentiis's remake of King Kong). It uses a camp style similar to the 1960s TV series Batman (which Semple developed) in an attempt to appeal to fans of the original comics and serial films.
The film is notable for its soundtrack composed, performed and produced by the rock band Queen, with the orchestral sections by Howard Blake. The film has since gained a significant cult following.
