Frontier, is there a full length shot of that somewhere?

Yes and no.

Yes, there is a full length shot in existence. The original. Said would also be with a black background, like all other FC promo shots, rather than the white.

Sadly, I don't have such. All I have is that. Actually I have a larger version, but below that portion of him it's obscured by text.

The photo comes from a copy of the UK Star Trek Magazine, a 15th anniversary TNG issue. It's the cover, but the rest of his chest and arms are obscured by large text beyond my abilities to photoshop. And I'm damn good as reconstructing photos through photoshop.

If anyone really wants such (the cover itself, with the text) and especially if anyone thinks they can remove the text, let me know. Heh. As it is... well, these pics aren't in a gallery labeled "rare" for no reason!

The cover in question (I have a 1000x better copy): http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/en/images/a/ae/STM_issue_97_cover.jpg

As I've remarked to many friends over the years when discussing the rare photos project... someday, I'm just going to go Rambo on the Paramount Publicity Photo Archives and make off with a treasure trove the likes of which I can't even dream of...

Thanks for that. Here's what I've got so far. Managed to get a bit further down. I'm still working on the rest. I'll post it if I can get it to look at least semi-decent!

Hey, Frontier, in all your rare pic journeys have you come across the pics taken of some of Thesis' early TNG uniform prototypes. There's a picture of one in the Star Trek Communicator article on TNG's 20th Anniversary. It's quite small and has Thesis showing the prototypes off to Roddenberry, Berman, and Justman. They look really different than what we actually got.

Afraid I've never seen actual pictures, but I do recall seeing the art sketches somewhere...

Oh, well. The search continues...

By the way, if I haven't recently, thank you for all the rare pics!

Smilin' Spock is great.

^ If you check past issues, there are a number of other "smiling spock" photos.

I still can't get used to it. Having met Leonard twice, having seen numerous photos of him smiling in costume... it's just weird!

Thanks for that. Here's what I've got so far. Managed to get a bit further down. I'm still working on the rest. I'll post it if I can get it to look at least semi-decent!

If you do let me know. I love this pic!!!

Warmest Wishes,
Whoa Nellie

^ I thought you might. I had you in mind when I was running in through Photoshop. I haven't done any work on it since Frontier posted it. When I get some time to concentrate on it I'll post what I have.

I do love these! Some of these pics are simply precious.

I'd just like to say, that this pic of Beverly is sexy in a way that I can't figure out and I don't care, cause she looks great in it.
