Thank God for a family who never throws anything away! While home this Christmas, my brother pulled out these old autograph photos I got during the Star Trek conventions in the early to mid 80's. These pictures somehow manged to survive 2 moves my Dad and step Mom did over the past 25 years. I can't believe they found these and I can't believe I forgot about them. Making them even more special is the fact that De, Jimmy, and Mark are all no longer with us and I feel so fortunate to have met them and have now have a personal item to remember them by. All of these I got during the time of ST II and III.
AWESOMENESS!
Bryan those are the BEST.. such a great find... congrats.
Those are treasures!
I'm glad that those were not destroyed! Awesome pics and they do deserve to be properly framed.

Dude, what a find. How on Earth did you forget about them?
Better to have forgotten about them and then found them than to have forgotten them and then realised that they'd been lost!

During my late teens and 20's, I wasn't as involved in Trek as I am now. I knew I had met them but never recalled I had the photo's. I think I had a bit too much fun in my youth and memories a bit dodgy... ;)

So cool. It's like getting them twice.
Those are fantastic. I love all of those.
Seeing that pic of DeForest really makes me sentimental. Such a great actor, not just as McCoy, but in old westerns and other shows. Very dynamic guy, he always had a way of making you feel. Perfect example was Galileo 7. Such a pain in Spocks butt. However, I think he kept spock off balance a bit, didnt allow him to go into 'Full Logic' mode. paid off in the end obviously.
And Mark Lenard, Sarek, and General Urko in the Planet of the Apes TV show. Interesting that he and Nimoy have such powerful and recognizable voices. Good casting by GR.
What an amazing find. I would have loved to have seen your face when they were put back in your hands. Talk about an extra Christmas Present.
