1975 article: The Star Trek Phenomenon

The article posted this time comes from Movie Monsters magazine, issue 4, published in August of 1975. Issue #1 had run a very scathing (and inaccurate) appraisal of the show, infuriating many fans (including me) and they decided to make up for it with an in-depth article written by someone not as hostile toward it. But it did run most of the same photos that every other magazine at the time was using. I mean, really.. how many times have we seen that photo of Captain Kirk in the grip of the drill thrall Shana?

Why the lower left photo is in this article is a mystery.
