The one that I remember best.... and would dearly love to get a copy of
.... is the picture of Mr. Spock holding a model (rather large say.... 2 or
3 feet overall length!) and the whole picture was made up of about 8 (or
was it 6?) pieces of computer (read green-bar) paper taped together in like
a 4 x 2 configuration!

Ahhhh... to get that pic again hehehe

Art "Yep, I be a closet Trekker hehehe" Bahrs

This brings back my memory of some of the character art that was done on
the teletype and stored on paper tape.  Because you could do a carriage
return without a line feed and do overstrikes, several varying patterns of
density could be achieved.  I remember a quite accurate portrait of a nude
woman was done.
