ScreenUsed - July 6, 2013 - Movie Props and Wardrobe Auction - Star Trek Preview

The ScreenUsed Summer 2013 entertainment memorabilia auction is set to take place on Saturday, July 6th at 10:00 am PDT, and amongst the items to be included in the event are a total of 193 Star Trek-related lots - almost half of the total lots in the sale.  The vast majority of this very impressive Star Trek offering, which is particularly rich in DS9 and Enterprise screen used props and costumes, has been consigned by a single prominent collector who has instructed the auction house to implement very low starting bids on the lots - in the style of the ItsAWrap ebay Star Trek auctions sponsored by CBS/Paramount to clear their Trek inventory between 2006 and 2009.   Presented below are the original auction catalog photos and descriptions for some of the highlights of the Star Trek memorabilia to be sold.

Interested bidders may sign up to participate live online in the ScreenUsed Summer 2013 auction at the following link:  http://www.icollector.com/ScreenUsed-Summer-2013_as26841?ps=100
