SCI FI are giving away a Pegasus Book from Admiral Cain’s office, a Battlestar Galactica operations binder, consisting of paperwork from Galactica's Combat Information Centre and a set of Captain rank pins worn by Colonial Fleet officers.
The prizes are simply amazing - from the recent record-breaking auction of Battlestar Galactica items. They are not replicas. They are made-for-the-production pieces of history, worth thousands of dollars - or to true fans, priceless.
