The SANCTUARY KEEPSAKE CAMPAIGN to benefit the Sanctuary 4 Kids charity continues with new items, including a few little items from Primeval:New World, the new series for the SPACE Channel that has been home this year to a few Sanctuary alumni -- Martin Wood and I are Executive Producing, Amanda Tapping and Andy Mikita each directed multiple episodes, Robert Lawrenson made a guest appearance, and many of the behind-the-scenes crew joined us as well.
What is the Sanctuary Keepsake Campaign? In short, it's a chance to obtain small items from Sanctuary (and now other shows), as thank-you gifts in return for donating to the Sanctuary 4 Kids charity. Since the campaign was inspired by the goal of making the keepsakes widely available, we've once again tried to include items for every budget level.
Below is a roundup of ALL REMAINING ITEMS and a few NEW ITEMS.
There are more than two dozen of them here -- just regular pencils, mechanical pencils and ballpoint pens, nothing special about them at all EXCEPT THAT THEY SAT ON HELEN MAGNUS' DESK in Season 4 of Sanctuary. They'll be distributed at random to the first 30 people to donate a minimum of $20 to Sanctuary 4 Kids and request them according the the rules below. ONE PER CUSTOMER, PLEASE. WHILE SUPPLIES LAST
One of these Sanctuary logo memo pads (promotional items from the original 2007 webseries) will now be included with every pen or pencil from Magnus' desk. Also, additional promo items (such as promo postcards and Helen Magnus' lenticular business card from the webseries) will be included with all Thank-You items while supplies last.
**UPDATE: As of 8 PM PST on Sunday, 9/23, 12 remain available.**
This amethyst-coloured "rubber glass" was created by the FX department for episode #316, "Awakening," to be used in the sequence where the Vampire Queen Afina breaks from her crystal tomb. Although the final on-screen tomb was a CGI creation, the purple rubber glass was crumbled and used on set as shattered pieces on the floor.
Each sculptural piece of "amethyst" retained from the discarded rubber glass is completely unique. Size is approximately 1 square inch. Each will come with a Certificate of Authenticity. WHILE SUPPLIES LAST
These familiar red and gold brocade curtains hung in Helen Magnus' office for the run of the series. For the post-apocalyptic episode "Pavor Nocturnus" in Season 2, the curtains were replaced with these "stunt doubles" that were shredded and distressed for the scene in the destroyed Sanctuary. This screen-used material has been professionally tailored into approximately 12-inch squares, each one unique. Ideal as crying towels for mourning the loss of a beloved series! Many of these are distinguished by unique rips and camera-friendly damage; others are intact and might be pressed into service as dinner napkins. Please note in your email if you prefer an intact or a distressed swatch, and I will do my best to accomodate your request. Each one will come with a Certificate of Authenticity. WHILE SUPPLIES LAST
**UPDATE: As of 6 PM on Friday, 9/20, I am having additional swatches made from a second curtain. Therefore, delivery of swatches requested after this time may be delayed to allow time for tailoring **

They have been transferred to a newly-purchased Nyko brand remote for the Wii. To transfer them to your own Wii, just sync the remote to your Wii, go to the Mii Plaza, and select "Transfer." Then choose the new remote and you will be able to drag and drop the characters into your own Mii Plaza, where they will interact with your own family and friends, join your muster, and even play Tennis with or against you. Look out for Tesla, though -- he cheats.

I hope the Campaign went well for you and Sanctuary For Kids! I'm happy with the Sanctuary stuff I aquired and that I donated to S4K to do it. Thanks Gillian :)
My pencil arrived safely in Scotland. Thank you very much for both it and all the extras. :-)
