Courtney Watson McCarthy gets top billing as the paper artist/designer. I'm always in awe by pop-up books!

I like how MA categorizes it as a "reference book."

Is These Are the Voyages... the only previous Star Trek pop-up book? (I'm sorry, "three-dimensional album.") I just came across it today when unboxing some old books.

Over on MA, we have a practice that you have to have a certain number of items to create a category. So, pop-up books have ended up as "reference books" to date, as we try to figure out what the hell to actually classify them as.

There has also been a wonderful "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" pop-up book (1980, Wanderer), and two TOS story books in 1977, "Trillions of Trilligs" and "Giant in the Universe" (Random House):

"These are the Voyages" was definitely a reference book. Or I guess it could also be an art book? But the two 1977 books, and the TMP tie-in, are children's picture books with illustrations presented in pop-up form.
