We are very sad to learn of the passing today of legendary actress Jean Marsh, whose many roles included three appearances in Doctor Who (the latter two, two decades apart!) as well as Willow, Upstairs Downstairs, Return to Oz, and many more. The delightful Ms. Marsh joined us for a rare North American appearance at Gallifrey One 2014, and was as lovely as we had expected. Our deepest condolences to her family.

Less than 24 hrs left on this auction! Alister was able to get the Zygon print signed by Tom Baker earlier today! If you are outside the UK this is an amazing opportunity to obtain prints signed by Alister and many Doctor Who celebrities. Alister does not travel outside the UK and Tom does not sign very often any more nor does he travel outside the UK!

This auction is in support of Unite4Lily!

ALISTER PEARSON - DOCTOR WHO signed prints and postcards
The proceeds from this auction will be donated to Unite4Lily. We have a selection of items covering all seven Doctors from the Classic Series of DOCTOR WHO.

This is a unique lot from famed artist Alister Pearson and a rare opportunity for fans all around the world as he does not travel outside the UK.

THE CELESTIAL TOYMAKER - to tie in with the April release of the BBC audiobook of the Target novelization, read by Peter Purves. Having used the isolated portrait of Michael Gough as the Toymaker as part of a promotional image for a screening of the fourth episode at a DWAS event at Riverside Studios, Alister and his colleague David Lavelle created a slightly revamped version of the ‘blue spine’ reprint Target book cover artwork, adding portraits of Steven and Dodo from other paintings. Only four A4 prints were produced and one of them was given to Peter Purves. This copy is signed by Peter Purves.

AN UNEARTHLY CHILD/SURVIVAL - using elements from a revamped version of the BBC video cover artwork for the very first story from 1963 along with elements from the Target book cover artwork for the very last story of the Classic Series in 1989, this image was produced for an event in Epsom in September 2024. Sadly, Carole Ann Ford was unable to attend the event. She signed this A4 print in January of this year. ( Note: this is printed on paper and is not a photographic print like the other A4-sized items in this auction ).

THE MOONBASE - a postcard version of the promotional image created for a DWAS screening at Riverside Studios. The card is signed by Anneke Wills.

SEA AND SPACE - a postcard version of the promotional image created for another DWAS screening at Riverside Studios. The card is signed by Frazer Hines and Wendy Padbury.

THE DAEMONS - a larger print of this revamped version of the Titan Script Book cover artwork was the raffle prize at an event in Aldbourne ( where the TV story was filmed ) in 2024. This A4 version is signed by John Levene who was also given a copy, as was Katy Manning.

TERROR OF THE ZYGONS - a unique A4 version of the revamped ‘blue spine’ reprint Target book cover artwork. ( Note: an equally unique but much larger version of this image - complete with Radio Times listings for the four episodes - will be appearing on eBay around the time of the TV story’s 50th anniversary later this year ). This is the ONLY A4-sized copy of this print.

HANDBOOK TRIO - a larger print of this image was the main prize in a raffle at an event in Epsom in January 2025. It features the portraits from the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Doctor HANDBOOKS. Seven of these A4 prints were created and Peter Davison, Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy each received a copy.

This auction will go live at 9.00pm UK / 4:00 pm Chicago Time tomorrow the 3rd of April and will run for 10 days, ending on April 13th at the same time, as per Alister’s request!
