Elosha’s Scroll

This was actually one of the first props we dug out and still one of the favorites of the Propworx crew.  Used throughout the show, starting with the final scenes of the miniseries, this prop had an enormous amount of work put into it and looks absolutely spectacular.

The case is custom metal work that holds a fabric scroll that rolls out of the case.  It is incredibly detailed and you can imagine the amount of work that went into designing and fabricating something so intricate.  The scroll part was also custom made with ancient writings from Kobol printed on it.  In this lot we include an original concept sketch of the scroll and laser color copies of several pre-production design sketches of the scroll and the lettering that was created to look like it was from ancient Kobol.

We first see Elosha, the priestess, holding this scroll in the open position at the funeral scene at the end of the miniseries and so it is very memorable.  It is then used at the swearing in of Baltar as President at the end of Season Two.  It was also used in the season three episode “Torn” where Gaeta is trying to extrapolate from Baltar’s work the location of Earth.

This is truly one of the premier props we have and I highly recommend hard core collectors take a serious look at this!

Artemis and Aphrodite Statues

In Season 1’s “Flesh and Bone“, Kara Thrace prays to the Gods of Aphrodite and Artemis by the use of idols. As seen in that episode, Thrace opens up a cloth with the idols within, and begins praying for Leoben Conoy’s soul, after his execution by Laura Roslin.

Asclepius pendant

In Season 4’s “Escape Velocity“, a new Lord of Kobol is revealed: Asclepius, the God of Healing. In the mainstream polytheistic faith of the Twelve Colonies, Asclepius is idolized by a small medallion of a caduceus, which is hung around the neck. [Read more]

Gaius Baltar’s robes

In his alleged post-trial reformation as a spiritual leader, spurred by the “nymph squad” that saves him after the end of his controversial trial in “Crossroads, Part II“, Gaius Baltar begins to wear robes of a religious nature. While their origin is unknown, these robes first appear in the Season 4 episode “Escape Velocity“, and are featured in later episodes while with his followers.

Usually, Baltar wears these robes while preaching the belief that “everyone is perfect” and that the Lords of Kobol are false gods. These sermons are recorded and then transmitted over the Talk Wireless so as to reach other listeners, including terminal cancer patient Emily Kowalski, herself featured in the Season 4 episode, “Faith“.
