Star Trek & The Next Generation: Audio Tapes. "Space… the final frontier. These are the Voyages of the starship Enterprise. It's five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations -- to boldly go where no man has gone before."
On September 8, 1966, those now-familiar words first introduced an entire generation of television viewers to STAR TREK. Over the course of its three-year network run, the show developed a fan following unprecedented in the entertainment history -- a following that is still growing with the release of each new STAR TREK motion picture.
Much of the show's appeal came from its blueprint for the future -- a future where man had put aside his differences to reach the stars. STAR TREK gave us a Russian and a American working side-by-side, television's first interracial kiss, the name for America's first space shuttle -- Enterprise -- and a host of unforgettable characters: the unflappable Captain Kirk, his half-human science officer Spock, the irascible Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy, and ever-resourceful engineer Montgomery Scott, to name a few. Fifteen Cassettes. Ten Star Trek tapes dramatizing seven novels and three of the feature films with dramatic readings by Leonard Nimoy and George Takei, enhanced sound effects and an original score.
The five The Next Generation cassettes also feature dramatic readings, special effects and original scores. Entire collection in original packaging. Very Good.
Estimated Value $200 - 300.
