1976 Leaf Star Trek Trading Cards

Leaf produced a handsome trading card set devoted to Star Trek in 1967, while the series was still on the air. Unfortunately, they printed the cards before they were granted the final license to do so - and, as it turned out, they didn't get the license. So, although many cards have made it into collectors' hands, the set is considered very difficult to complete, and individual cards are expensive.

The Leaf Star Trek set contained 72 cards, each measuring 2-3/8"x3-7/16".

The card fronts featured a still photo taken from the show, in black and white, with the card title in a black band at the bottom and a wide white border along the edges of the card.

The backs were white, with the card title and a paragraph of text about the photo in the center, with the Starfleet emblem at the upper left and a small photo of Kirk and Spock on the right. All card backs were horizontal.

The American Card Catalog number for this set is R734-10.
