Excitement is building amongst Doctor Who Fan as the 50th Anniversary of the show approaches and while every fan knows that it was the evil Davros who created the deadly Dalek race in the canon, in reality it was the well-known writer Terry Nation who dreamt up the Daleks. What some fans may not be aware of however is that the man who gave the Daleks form was prop-designer and artist Raymond Cusick, who lived in Horsham, securing the town a place in the Doctor Who story.
This important connection is being marked by an exhibition of Doctor Who memorabilia at Horsham Museum & Art Gallery, which includes an actual Dalek
The exhibition is the inspiration of Horsham Museum Curator Jason Semmens, who has been a fan of the show since he was three years old.
“Doctor Who was the hero of a range of cartoon strips published in various comics and annuals from the mid-1960s onwards, the artwork for the comics is much larger than the comic books and has real visual impact.”
The exhibition, ‘2D Adventures in Time and Space: An Unofficial Doctor Who Exhibition’ is free and it runs until 1st January 2014.
