Star Trek will celebrate its 55th anniversary this year

And just in time for the celebration comes a new hardcover book from Hero Collector, the publishing division of Eaglemoss that brought you Star Trek: Voyager—A Celebration. Though arriving on September 21st, which is almost two weeks past the official celebration day, Star Trek: The Original Series—A Celebration will be worth the wait as this coffee-table book will be 256 pages of pure bliss for fans of The Original Series.

Chock full of features that will keep any fan busy for hours, this book includes never-before-seen interviews as well as archival interviews with the lead actors, guest stars, stunt people, directors, and more. Also inside are more than 200 photos and sketches, many of them ones that have rarely been seen or even have never been seen before.

Star Trek: The Original Series—A Celebration delves into everything about the series, from what you thought you knew to what you never knew, including details on the opening narration, the visual effects that made a 1966 science fiction drama come alive onscreen, to the music every fan recognizes, to the make-up for aliens and regular cast, casting, the fandom, including conventions, and more.

Written by Ben Robinson and Ian Spelling, this compelling collection includes stories that have never been told as the writers tracked down actors and crew we’ve never heard from before. And Robinson promises that “however well you think you know Star Trek, there’s something new for you. It’s really the Star Trek book I’ve always wanted to add to my collection.”

Star Trek: The Original Series—A Celebration is priced at $34.95/U.S. and $44.95/Canada, and it’s now available for pre-order!
