    Sneak peak of some pages from my upcoming ST Collectibles book

    Hi everyone
    For those of you who have been wondering what I have been up to lately, I have been working very hard getting my book finished with the publisher and I am very happy to announce that the manuscript content and pictures are now finished and on it's way to the printers. My family and I are all very excited.
    I thought some of you would like to see pics of a few of the actual final pages from my soon to be published book:

    Of course I can only show off a few of the final pages so hopefully these give you a good idea of what my book is going to look like when published and released in mid October.
    I had a bit of a problem uploading the images here so I posted them from a free car site I use.
    So let me know what you think and enjoy the special sneak peak

    Steve

      Looks like a great read. Do you cover any of the AMT models or Dinky stuff?
      It's all good!

        Wow! That's really awesome! Besides the Megos, I have the large Playmates figures, and those Knickerbocker stuffies of Kirk & Spock.

                  Yes, the book has values, though with eBay printed values are never going to be that accurate anymore.
                  The book has been available for pre-order through just about every online bookstore for months now. Just go on Amazon.com and do a search for Star Trek collectibles book and mine will be the first that pops up.
                  It is being published by Krause so it will also be available in all of the major bookstores including Barnes and Nobles, Borders, etc

                          Yes, but unfortunately to keep the book at 250 pages quite a bit of the content I submitted was cut and the Mego Museum cards were some of the many content that got cut :(
