Welcome back to Trek World! 🌟 Jim here, and today we're diving into the fascinating history of the original Star Trek encyclopedia. While many of us are familiar with the incredible work by Denise and Mike Okuda, there's a rich backstory to the concept of a Star Trek reference book.
Did you know that the real pioneer of the Star Trek encyclopedia was Bjo Trimble? 📖 The journey began long before the famous Okuda editions, with the original idea tracing back to the 1960s.
In 1988, Schuster & Schuster released a hefty 300-page volume by John Peel, which quickly became a must-have for every Star Trek fan. ⚖️ Weighing about two pounds, this comprehensive guide was first sold through Files magazine and select local stores for around twenty dollars.
Join us as we explore this vintage gem, its origins, and why it's an essential piece for any Star Trek collection. If you enjoy the video, don't forget to smash that like button and subscribe for more Star Trek content! 🖖
