<\/p>\n

So this morning I had a wonderful email containing photos of my pal Corey’s amazing collection of vintage Star Trek towels<\/b>.<\/p>\n

I’ll be honest, I rarely thought of towels as a collectible (ok, I own like three) but now these are all I can think about.<\/u><\/b>
\n
<\/u><\/b>
\nThe rest of this breathtaking collection can be found after the jump:<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>Disclaimer:<\/b> I may sound like I’m mocking these in my comments but know that I’ve searched “Star Trek Towel” on Ebay twice today, so I’m a total fraud.<\/p>\n

\n
\nOf all of these, I think this is my favourite, mostly because it’s the awesome sauce Mr Spock model kit<\/a> in towel form! How did i live without this?<\/p>\n

\n
\nTo visit Strange New Worlds<\/b>: I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that Deforest Kelly or William Shatner never saw this.<\/p>\n


\nIn case you haven’t figured it out yet, Mr Spock<\/b> was kind of the big draw when it came to these things.<\/p>\n

There are two missing from the set, a shot of Kirk and Spock <\/a>(which looks a lot like the first cover of Starlog) and the Enterprise fighting a Klingon ship, so the Shat really got the shaft in all of this.<\/p>\n

That’s the matte painting from “Where no man has gone before” I believe.<\/p>\n


\nPeace, Live Long and Prosper: <\/b>I assume this is a shot of Spock on vacation, visiting the castles on Rigel VII, a guy can’t enough hobbies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
