    Yours Apefully: The ‘Planet of the Apes’ Live UK Arena Show, 1976



    DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PERSONALLY ,BUT THOUGHT THIS MAY BE OF INTEREST TO A FEW APES GUYS ON HERE ,I TRIED TO POST A FEW PICTURES BUT THEY DON'T SHOW UP ,PLENTY OF THEM IN THE LINKS




    In 1975, shortly after the Planet of the Apes TV series had been shown in the UK, Television Character Promotions (TVC) - a small and relatively inexperienced family-run PR and promotions company - secured rights from Twentieth Century Fox to arrange a string of personal appearances and public performances by Apes characters which occurred across the UK between 1975-1978. This live work was a lucrative proposition and the company excelled themselves. A deal was also reached to run a fan club end


    sorry about the caps lol

              I find the Apes stuff fascinating, but I always really found the Sea World DC thing even more wild.

              Let's go see the Flash... IN PERSON... On water skis!

              Such silly fun.
