I had a dark blue Star Trek bedspread with different illustrations of the characters. When my parents moved one of the twin bunk beds from my room, my mother turned the other Star Trek bedspread into curtains. (And yet I still turned out semi-normal…)

I had that Star Trek bed spread and some light blue Star Trek sheets to go with it. The sheets weren’t quite as accurate in their depictions (I think Kirk had a red shirt on). It was always stressful when my Mom had to wash the Star Trek sheets and I had to make due in the mean time with a basketball bed set that I got past down from a friend (I hated basketball).

I can just feel those thin, rough bedspreads, and I can smell the dye used to color them.

I only had one set of liscensed sheets/spread as a kid, and it was Peanuts. Worse yet, it was for a fullsized bed, b/c for about ages 6-8 my brother and I had to share a bed! Once the bunkbeds came, I always wanted one of these types of sets, but never got one.

I’m right there with you on using these today, I guess that’s why my wife is in charge of decorating… I love the staged stuff too, made it that much cooler to look at the catalogs when you were a kid.

BTW, hands down one of the coolest Star Trek toys, I still have mine, plan on featuring it soon!

"It's far out fun with exciting Star Trek heroes!"

God. I love 1970s copy.

Man. Those Star Trek sheets are fantastic. I was lucky enough to have the Star Wars sheet/blanket set. I think I still have one pillowcase (what? bed linen doesn’t last more than 30 years?)
