Starlog writer David Hirsch holds the Dorcon mothership in Martin Bower's workshop, around 1980. Martin Bower was restoring the model for the Blackpool Space City exhibition.

Photos by David Hirsch in Bower's workshop. The underside of the domes were slide projector carousels split in half. The front and back parts were made from a teasmade (an automatic tea making machine).

When last seen, in the early 1990s, the front section and two of the top domes were missing, and other parts were damaged. It is not known if the model survives.
