Star Trek collectibles book

[startrekfiero]

It was suggested that I post this here...

The ABC news series Chronicles recently did a story about my collection and getting a book deal to author a full color Star Trek collectibles book to be published by Krause Publications for release in time for the premier of the new movie. Though the new movie date seems to have changed for the moment to May '09 I think the publisher at this time anyway is going to keep the original printing date of my book to late fall '08.
The ABC studio sent me a copy on DVD and it is now uploaded on youtube:

For those who didn't get a chance to see it when it originally aired, enjoy

Hey Steve that is pretty cool! Too bad we couldn't have seen more of your collection. Everything goes by so fast you can't really see the details. Good luck on the collectors book!

So... what's the title of the book? I don't have any Krause publications, so what will it look like? Trade paperback? Colour illustrations? Have you looked at previous Trek collectibles books and decided to do certain things differently, or not at all, or added new features that past books haven't done?

I don't know what the actual book title will be yet. Our working title right now is just simply Star Trek collectibles and Memorabilia. I am told that it should be the same size and similar in look to the recent Transformers toys book that Krause published around the release of the Transformers movie.
I own every Star Trek collectible book ever published, but I am only responsible for the content. The layout and look of the book is completely handled by the publisher. As far as I know they are trying to do some new things with this book, just like with the Transformers book where they added a unique cover and such.
