Clapper Board and Crew Pics From Final Episode

Pretty much the most awesome crew item I have in my collection, and possibly the rarest, is this genuine set-used clapper board from the final episode, Friend in Need. This board was obtained from the crew member, David Shope, who used it and who is listed as the "Clapper Loader" in the final original call sheet which I also have. David took photos of himself with it on the set for a kind of COA. In one of the photos, you can see Zoe Bell dressed in full Xena gear in the background, working with some of the crew on stunts. This is from the second unit (not the main actor shots but primarily the stunt crew). I also have the original packaging that the clapper was shipped in from David. Pretty nice!

The photos are original from negative (not digital) and have the NZ photo lab timestamp on them as well as an original envelope from REN PAC that contained an original pink timesheet. Super cool! Enjoy....

Xena Basket of Chakram Props Behind the Scenes Photo

This is an actual crew photo from the original 35mm negative. It's a wicker basket full of various chakram props, one wood, one resin and some others that I can't tell what the material is. There are also some other props in the basket. It looks pretty cool.

Behind the Scenes Photos-Friend in Need Wrap

This set of 4x6 photos are from the original 35mm negative and are not copies. We've got Rob Tapert on the set, Lucy and Renee posing in FIN costumes with some of the cast and crew who played the samurai warriors.

LOVE this one; a nice continuity picture of Evil Xena's horse.

Child Centaur Continuity Photos

Here are two nice continuity pics of children playing young centaurs in a Xena episode. Cute shots!

Centaur Continuity Photos

Here are some nice continuity photos from Xena Episode 5 and others. These came from the set with wardrobe tags stapled directly on the photo, with information on the actor playing the centaur.

The Lost Sappho Episode "Last Chance" Shooting Script

This is a very rare and neat item, the script with notes for the Sappho musical that was never made due to funding concerns. This script is exceptionally maintext, with a "deep and passionate kiss" between our heroines (see photo) at the end. There are also some notes written by Missy Good and placed in the front of the script. Lucy and Renee play their usual parts and Renee plays Sappho while Lucy plays Sappho's timid partner. The jist of the storyline is that Aphrodite's son Senhel no longer believes in true love, as he has seen only lust. Dite thinks if Xena and Gab can help Sappho get her muse back, it will convince her son that true love exists. Well, the true love he eventually sees turns out to be between X and G and not related to Sappho or her inspiration. I understand there were only about 50 copies of the script made as it was halted before production began. A very interesting read and would have been a fun musical....disco style!
