Description
Unique retro designs depicting classic episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series, captivating not only Trek fans but lovers of all sci-fi! Artist Juan Ortiz has created 80 movie-style posters, one for each and every episode (including the first pilot) of Star Trek: The Original Series. The images feature retro-style art that recalls 1960's-era posters, pulp novel covers, comic books and advertisements. What if every Star Trek: The Original Series episode was a movie event? What would the movie poster look like? This was the inspiration to develop a one-of-a-kind set of images for the series that launched a franchise.
