There was a huge fan basis for Doctor Who before 'Revenge Of The Cybermen' in 1975 and a lot of people would have remembered the symbol when it appeared in later stories |
Not really sure what your point is.
Are you saying the symbol wasn't used a second time because it was still in the props store and was a genuine story device for a character who hadn't been thought of in Revenge of the Cybermen or simply arguing the fact that i said the production team wouldn't have thought twice about reusing a prop as nobody would have noticed.
I genuinely think a Doctor Who fan of the time would not have been any the wiser seeing as they had no recording equipment to rewatch the story. People remembered the monsters back then and the cliffhangers not what was used as set decor. Even if some geek thought it looked familiar they'd have had no way of proving it.
