Extremely rare original Writer’s-Director’s Guide for the Star Trek television series, signed by William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy (each adding their character name) on their respective character description page. Guide consists of 18 pages (including cover page), dated March 15, 1966, making this the first of three versions made while the series was in production, with this version being issued before a single episode was written. Guide lists James T. Kirk as the main character, Mister Spock with “satanic pointed ears,” as the principal supporting role, and lists other cast regulars as “a taciturn Scottish Engineering Officer; an Oriental Physicist; a brilliant but sometimes immature Navigator; Phillip ‘Bones’ Piper, M. D., ship’s doctor and worldly cynic; and an uncomfortably lovely Captain’s Yeoman.” guide also answers many questions the writers may come up with including warp travel, the ship’s weapons, and alien life. In fine condition, with minor notations to a couple of pages and a rusty staple hole and paperclip impression to top left. Guide originates from the collection of Star Trek writer Oliver Crawford.
