The TreX-Files!

Set the Wayback machine to 1966 and you'll find the premiere of a little SF show originally entitled "Wagon Train to the Stars" but went on the air as "Star Trek." To celebrate that little anniversary, here is a binder full of the Official Star Trek Fact Files, #1 in a weekly series (now numbering about 200!) The first file cost 290¥ and with that you get a nifty binder to hold all the Facts, Dano. Unfortunately subsequent files cost 580¥ and had I continued to buy these, I'd be running close to a thousand bucks to fill my binder!


Here we go with the front cover of the binder and front cover of the file.










Each File is separated into 7 Sections, the first being, "The Guide to the ST Galaxy."














Starting off with the Introduction, including everything from a Timeline to Other Races.










Here's the Timeline. Can you pinpoint each event by only the Stardate?






























The first Alien Race studied are Klingons.













The next Section is Starship and Federation.














This includes the infamous Picard Maneuver.











Also Main Engineering in a little UFO called the Enterprise.










Section #3: Non-Federation Starships.
























Featuring the Klingon Bird of Prey (the coolest ship EVER made, IMHO.)


#4, Personnel Files focuses on our favourite Pinocchio, Data!










Next up is Section 5, Equipment &Technology...













featuring Transporters (no flies please.)












Following is Section 6, Starship Log.















It includes a favourite from Voyager and from TNG.












Finally Section 7 is A-Z Access Point, beginning an A-Z glossary.



























It all ends with a smattering of Series and Movies logos on the reverse of the Binder. All in all, a nice little package for under 3 bucks!
