How about a real classic.

Yes, Flash Gordon's ship; but I don't recall the Flash ever giving his ship a name.
And you could barely see the black thread that it as suspended from. There is a blooper somewhere that you see the ship catching fire from the smoke generator they used in it; I'll have to see if I can dig it up.

Yes! The 1936 version.
I found they have all of them on youtube.
I still remember watching them on TV Saturday mornings.
Dale Arden, Dr. Zarkhov, Ming the Merciless, and the Clay People. The thing never did make sense, and it was incredibly stagey, but it was FUN.

I haven't seen them in about 65 years.

Ming's threads might be a little over-the-top in today's business casual office, but I would LOVE to be able to pull off Ming's beard 'n' stash combo.

And Coss? Don't fall for it! LillyMay is just using her feminine wiles to confuse you. You'll show up on Woodward and it'll be an Amway presentation. Or Fuller Brush. One of the two.
