FM #64 Issue "Stark Trek" 1970 Article

From April 1970 Issue 64 of the venerable Famous Monsters magazine comes this early story on the show, and the bonus is some rare photos that have never really been seen since, like the one of the small copper-skinned ambassadors from "Journey To Babel" posing by the Jeffries Tube, and the closeup of the makeup of the doomed and diseased Only from "Miri."

FM artist Basil Gogos passed away this past week at 88. What a talent!

Bonus: Below, a clipping from a TV movie magazine from the first run of the show.

Nichelle On Cover of 1968 Sepia Magazine

Found this image of the cover of Sepia featuring Nichelle from 1968. Is it any wonder that she shaped my perception as to standards of beauty as a young man? Also, I now want a hotdog for lunch.... a $10 hotdog with all the trimmings.

Bonus: Nichelle "hangs out" with Leonard at the premiere of The Motion Picture in 1979!

Bonus #2: A lovely rare promotional photo of Nichelle from "The Search For Spock."

Starfleet Academy movie!

From 1997 comes this "lost movie" which few fans have seen! Actually, it is cut together from game footage with new scenes filmed and added to flesh out the story. For those fans who thought they had seen the last of Captain Kirk, Sulu, and Chekov, this video is a welcome discovery. We get the added bonus of Christopher Plummer reprising his role of General Chang (and find out how he lost that eye)! I wish that Nichelle Nichols had been in it, also. It's not theatrical movie quality; not even TV-movie quality acting on the part of the cadets. But, just to see some of the old crew again... makes it worth it!

Nimoy Publicity Photo: Spock With Vulcan Lyre

A rarely-seen publicity photo of Nimoy with the Vulcan lyrette prop.

Gray Morrow Trek Poster Art

From the mighty and legendary issue number 2 (from 1972) of the incomparable and unforgettable publication "The Monster Times," comes this centerfold poster of Star Trek by artists Gray Morrow. How many had this hanging up in the room as a kid?
