Star Trek: The Original Topps Trading Card Series

A visual compilation of all 88 trading cards for Star Trek fans and collectors of TV memorabilia!

Since Star Trek first aired on television in 1966, the series has had an incredible influence on pop culture. In 1976, with the show’s rising popularity in syndication, the Topps Company released a series of collectible trading cards featuring full-color images from the classic television series created by Gene Roddenberry, as well as synopses and stats on the cast and crew of the Starship Enterprise.

Sure to please both die-hard fans and new generations, this first-ever collection includes the fronts and backs of all 88 cards, plus images of 22 rare and hard-to-find stickers (which were originally sold one per pack) as well as text and commentary by Star Trek insiders Paula M. Block and Terry J. Erdmann.
