Star Trek References

Before there were the resources of the internet, there were conventions and clubs. I would scour several in my area to bring home information that I would use for my references in model building in Star Trek (and other kits). I had purchased #1 of the StarFleet Assembly Manual in 1977 and #2 in 1980 with a blueprint as well. Never could find #3 until 2004 when the collected works came out with decals (thanks Paul M. Newitt). Mine is #007/100. In between I had picked up the Japanese Super-Visual collection from 1981. Then later the Bunkasha Publications of the later Star Trek Series published from 1995 to 1999. Just some of the earlier references that I have used.




1977



1980



2004, the collected works came out with decals (thanks Paul M. Newitt). Mine is #007/100.



1981, Super Visual Mook, a three volume set dealing with Star Trek as the main theme. Set me back $100.00 at the time. Who knows what it is worth today?



1995, Special Compendium for the movies and series, $50.00



1997, Special Compendium for the movies and series, $50.00



1999, Special Compendium for Mechanics and Vehicles, $50.00
