CBS' new rare photo book....

[Warped9]

CBS is getting in on the action with it's own book for the 50th anniversary: http://www.amazon.com/Star-Trek-Pho...ect=true&ref_=pe_1275890_187988590_em_1p_2_ti

Neat, but not much background information given yet.

Oops, I first thought that "CBS" referred to Cushman Bull Shit, not the network. My bad.

I believe CBS Watch is actually a magazine. (Although I see they describe this release as a "soft cover book"...) IIRC, they've actually put out a few Star Trek-related special issues recently, including a tribute issue to Leonard Nimoy last year. There have been a few threads in the Lit forum about the previous Trek ones.

The strong suit of all their past issues has been the photos, not the text -- at least this kind of thing is playing to their strengths.

CBS Watch put out a 100-page magazine--the "CBS Watch! Magazine--Collectors Edition 2014: The Lost Photographs of STAR TREK" in 2014:

Now they are putting out a paperback book (in June of this year):

"Star Trek: The Lost Photographs: Never Before Seen Shots of the Legendary Series:"

No more creepy photoshopped eyes.

I'll take it over that other new unofficial picture book.

So did they actually discover over a hundred pages' worth of new photos (again), or are they just republishing the contents of that magazine as a book?

My wife and daughter bought that magazine for me for Xmas. In addition to the horrible photoshopped cover, there are other doctored photos inside, and lots of questionable text for people who don't know much about Trek or care about accuracy.

[Don't tell my wife and daughter I criticized their gift]

No more creepy photoshopped eyes.

Creepy eyes? What?

 

[BoredShipCapt'n]

Creepy eyes? What?

Well, if you're Gary Mitchell you're probably a bit desensitized to creepy eyes.

 

[Tosk]

Creepy eyes? What?

On the cover of the magazine they photoshopped the eyes to be looking directly into camera. Spock's hand too.

 

[Warped9]

This is a claim to lost photos--Photoshop?

Hey, I could make that claim with all the photomanips I've done over the years depicting scenes we never saw onscreen.

 

[Tosk]

Hrm, was supposed to be out August 8th, now no info regarding release date at all. Hope it's not cancelled.

 

[Green Shirt]

Hope it's not cancelled.

If CBS read the posts here it probably is.

 

[publiusr]

They need to do one on just the ships. Other mags flooded the 50th market.

Hear that CBS!!

Mitchell's eyes scared the life out of me as a kid when I used to watch the repeats on BBC1!
