I came across some photos online of the Planet Of The Apes Adventure Set published by Amsco in 1974. It’s based on the Apes TV series released the same year on CBS. Although the photos are small, I can recognize all the main characters.

Like many show of the 1970s and 1980s, the Apes series was a “chase” show. It followed human astronauts Burke and Virdon, along with their chimpanzee friend Galen (played by Roddy McDowall who starting in 4 of the 5 original films).

The humans were trying to find some scientific method to return to the past. But they were chased by orangutan Dr Zaius and gorilla General Urko (played by Mark Lenard who portrayed Spock’s father on Star Trek).

Set pieces include a space ship, Ape Village, and a subway station based on the BART system in San Francisco.

Inexplicably it also includes the underground doomsday bomb and the destroyed Statue of Liberty seen in the films but not the TV series.

AP United States History Practice Questions

“To oppose those hordes of northern tribes, singly and alone, would prove certain destruction. We can make no progress in that way. We unite ourselves into one common band of brothers.

If our warriors are united they can defeat the enemy and drive them from our land; If we do this, we are safe . . . .
