    Star Trek animated show Lincoln Enterprises "cels"

    I never heard these talked about or have seen them on Ebay but when I got the Lincoln Enterprises catalog in the 1970's, when of the things that caught my eye were the animated Star Trek character cels. I did not know exactly what cels were at the time but knew they must be one of the things they do for cartoons. What I got when they came in are the full length pictures of the characters printed on a piece of clear plastic. the printing was translucent though. As I came to understand what cels were, I wanted them to be put on backgrounds without them being transparent, so I painted the back of the characters with liquid paper. Along the way, I lost Spock, Scotty and the Enterprise and what I have left is quite beat up but I wonder if anyone else knows of these of has these.

    I used to have one of the Enterprise and I put it in a book to preserve it and have long since forgotten which book it was put in. Oh well, Lol.

      I have a Star Trek cartoon cel I bought from a guy that sells Filmation stuff, (I got Mission Magic too). I haven't found a frame for it yet, but it's safely taped inside a box.

      'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
      Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
      If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

            Starlog was pretty smart as they saved the cels which never sold in the 70's-80's. But then their warehouse holding all their merchandise burnt down. So I guess value for them has gone up.

              I'm going to clean these up and restore them for a possible TAS theme Mego box in the same realm as my animated Apes box. Biggest challenge will be constructing a full figure Klingon.
