I was alerted to these vids recently - amazing stuff! There are 5 parts, so I'll post them consecutively with some notes.
This video contains:
Coverage of the NYC con in 1978 (by Barbara Feldon!) - check out Bill's shiny jacket - so hot!!
Annoucement of ST:TMP from a NYC TV station
Movie promo trailer, which seems to be narrated by the Exposition Police - I think this was not shown in theatres, but was sent to owners of movie theatres to get them to book the movie
Wow, I've never thought I'd see something like that! I loved watching the Trekkies in their element long before the movies and before I became a fan (before I was born too).
ReplyDeletePersonally, I love that one dealer's shirt! MY GOD MAN PUT A SHIRT ON!!!! Y'know one with sleeves?
Of course watching Bill tell his stories that may/may not be true is always fun. :)
For some reason those the freakish nature of the fans got more of my attention . . . I wonder how that happened?
