    Description

    "Flash Gordon" starring Olympic swimming medal winner Buster Crabbe was the first cinematic treatment of Alex Raymond's intrepid space hero who debuted in comic form in 1934. Distributed by Universal Studios, the serial was filmed in 13 parts running a total of 245 minutes.
    Shot on a budget of just 0,000 (Studio press releases inflated that figure to a more impressive million), the production recycled numerous sets and props from earlier movies, including the "hero" rocket, which was originally the "Mars Wing" from the 1930 sci-fi musical comedy
    "Just Imagine."
    Built by the brilliant Dr. Zarkov, the Flash Gordon rocket underwent numerous modifications between "
    Flash Gordon"
    (1934),
    "Flash Gordon's Trip to Mars"
    (1938) and
    "Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe"
    (1940). Most obvious among these was the addition side windows and a nose cannon between the second and third serials.
