In the coming week collectors are going to be treated to a smorgasbord of goodies that were once on the set of the real Star Trek show. Christies has been engaged by CBS Paramount Studios to auction never-before-released archives from the Star Trek sets.

This auction is going to include everything from costumes to Captain’s Kirk’s chair. A miniature of the starship Enterprise that was used in taping special effects will be right there waiting on the highest bidder. This is exciting news to the thousands of people who collect Star Trek memorabilia

Star Trek is such a popular venue for collectors that folks hold conventions, have Web sites and create blogs to soothe their fascination.

One of the best Web sites found that celebrate this futuristic space program is maintained by CBS studios, http://startrek.com.
