Star Trek scrapbooking

[RAMA]

Does anyone do it??

Years ago, when the amount of information was increasing for ST in the media, I decided I would collect it all together. This included TV Guide articles, magazine stories, etc. My very first scrapbook had the STNG cover of a local paper's TV Guide insert. Starting in 1987 and ending around the first season of Enterprise, I kept a continuous series of these things. Divided them into chapters: TV shows(episode guides clipped from TV Guide), Movies from the time of the scrapbook, technology, cartoons, aliens, etc.

I just dug through some of them today. Put them in new boxes and cleaned off the cobwebs. There's an incredible amount of stuff there. Everything from the movie tickets and newspaper showtimes of STIV onwards, to articles giving us the statistical success of STNG, to leaked scripts I printed out for ST:FC. So much forgotten info.

I'm kind of glad I didn't throw them out, which I almost did about 7-8 years ago.

Anyone doing this currently?

Sounds cool! Perhaps you can post pictures!

I kept one or two little articles, including this one which I believe is from trashy tabloid The Sun in either 1989 or 1990 (Next Gen made it's UK debut in 1990). They introduce the TNG crew in the most inflammatory way imaginable.

I used to do this 'back in the day' of the early 1990s when there was lots to cut out and collect. Don't really do it anymore.

Didn't keep much of it either, though I still have the Star Trek Generations 'passport to adventure' handout that was given away free at the cinema for Star Trek; Generations, and the Weetabix card/stickers promotion that ran for the same film. Plus a few assorted other bits - but most of the newspaper articles have gone.

I'll post some pics later today.

I used to have lots of clippings of all kinds.

I print interesting pages on trek.
I'm glad I did--with the great photobucket shutdown and all.

Prints--or it didn't happen.

I made an attempt, but it didn't go very far. I've still got miscellaneous TV guide articles, magazine photos, etc., as well as years' worth of Starlog magazines and fanzines (Interstat is the one I'm thinking of, which mainly consisted of letters - like posting on a forum, except you had to wait a month to see what had been posted and it would take another month to reply... if your letter was even selected for publication).
