Rare Trek Photos for December 2008

[Frontier]

I think it may be from a photoshoot Shatner did for TVGuide as part of the 30th anniversary (when they did the "Four covers/four captains" thing). He was featured in a quickie article where he posed with various "ladies of Star Trek" or something. I remember thinking the collar looked nothing like it did in any of the movies:

Click me.

I have the issue somewhere, but maybe someone with faster recall can check the issue and the other photos it contained.

Hrm... I guess unless the photographer steps forward this one might be a mystery for a bit.

Photo shoots like that usually escape the research, though, unless it happens to be something I'm aware of from my personal knowledge. Those kind of 'unofficial' things get obscured over the years, more often than not. Sometimes I've simply forced to make an educated "most likely" guess as the actual facts have really faded. Like with a few recent Frakes/Riker pics. I'd not have known where they came from without the knowledge of WillsBabe who identified them (and later provided me more from the series). In cases where I'm truly, truly boggled, I tend to title them "unknown" but sometimes, I make a leap of faith, heh.

Hhmm, i don't know but something about the photo screens STTUC, something about the shats face and hair....

No, it's definitely Generations or beyond. I'm leaning towards either the Academy game, or as suggested, TV Guide's 30th anniversary photo shoot. Look at the sleeves, the length at the cuffs -- this wasn't tailored well for the Shat. So I doubt this was for a feature film, likely later. Perhaps made based on relayed information, measurements or such, not with any fitting like a studio would do.

It's not the Academy game, because I have that and his collar is the way it appears in the movies. I'm betting its from the TV Guide shoot, just based on the collar and the hair.

(We're such nerds )

You say that as if it's a bad thing?

The nerds shall inherit the earth!

^ Nope, not condemning....just owning up to the reality of the situation

*Shrug* At least nerds aren't that un-cool now days. Everyone loves a nerd when they have a tech problem.

Also, I just compiled another edition of rare photos. I have a full 6 more editions of Rare Photos ready to go. That will take us until at least June of 2009. Hopefully, If I continue to locate source materials at the rate I've been doing, by June I'll have through December of 09. I've never gone below having 5 future editions ready, so, lets hope those numbers hold.

I love that picture of Jeffrey Hunter. I don't think I've seen such a relaxed shot of him ever. It looks like it could have been taken yesterday. He was such a loss.

Thanks for the link.

There was a pic of Ezri Dax. And it was the first time I did see her in a pic like that. True, I can tell why it was not made public because it is a very poor pic
