If you want to talk about the best signature sets of all time, the 1997 Fleer/SkyBox Star Trek TOS Season 1 Autographs must be part of the discussion. Not only did they launch a line that’s lasted decades, but the number of iconic signatures is almost daunting.
Inserted 1:36 packs of 1997 Fleer/SkyBox Star Trek TOS Season 1, this is the first set to include signatures from the original series.
So who’s on the checklist? It starts with several members of the bridge crew: William Shatner (Captain Kirk), James Doohan (Scott), Nichelle Nichols (Uhura), Grace Lee Whitney (Yeoman Rand) and George Takei (Sulu).
With 26 total signers, there are also several notable guest stars from the classic show’s first season. Ricardo Montalban and Joan Collins are just a couple.
As great as the 1997 Fleer/SkyBox Star Trek TOS Season 1 Autographs checklist is, there is room for growth. And that growth came rather quickly as SkyBox expanded into the second and third seasons and Rittenhouse took it even further. Leonard Nimoy and Deforest Kelly are the most notable missing names, but they would help anchor later sets.
