Secure a premier piece of sci-fi franchise and toy manufacturing history with this original vintage 1996 Playmates Toys Star Trek Media Press Kit folder package separate. Published by the Playmates Toys Publicity Department for the landmark Star Trek 30: One Weekend on Earth Festival held in Huntsville, Alabama from September 7 to September 8, 1996, this comprehensive marketing collection serves as an elite time capsule of classic action figure merchandise rollout. The set is beautifully arranged inside a heavy-duty glossy black presentation pocket folder separate featuring a large white text block label cleanly noting the event parameters, brand logo hits, and corporate office tracking details. Opening the packet reveals an extensive collection of original press release documents, including a formal Playmates Toys News Release tracking corporate sponsorships and charity sales supporting the Gene Roddenberry Foundation, an official Star Trek Products Availability Listing outlining retail pricing grids for the 9-inch Collector Figure Series and Starfleet Phasers, and a dedicated FotoCard publicity schedule sheet detailing convention photo session showtimes with original series icons Walter Koenig, James Doohan, George Takei, and Grace Lee Whitney. This specific archive lot was acquired directly from the private estate sale of renowned pop-culture authority and author Tom Tumbusch right here in Dayton, Ohio, where it served for decades as an absolute reference keystone within his personal historical research library files. The reverse side of the presentation folder displays a small embossed manufacturer tracking imprint stamp. A highly versatile collection separate that brings an element of relaxed y2k nostalgia, colorful coffee table staging, or historical archive reference to your home office desk or bookshelf setup. According to the internal text matrices, all elements inside this media portfolio package were produced in September 1996. Please check all detailed flat lay condition photos in the listing to confirm specific parameters, including light horizontal surface scuffs, a vertical scratch line path across the front glossy black right border edge, and smooth folder pocket corner condition details before purchase.
