What is this Card??! Cards we need more information on!  

OK!  Raise your hands! How many of you have heard these words: "You collect pieces of cardboard??" or "You paid how much for THAT???" How many of you spent months looking for that one special card to complete your set?? (Boy, it's hard to type with your hands in the air!) For such a small little thing, those cards can be highly addictive little buggers!!! (For those of you with your hands in the air, be sure and check out the section devoted to Clubs and Social Activities.) This page is dedicated to cards, old cards, new cards and foreign cards.  I will even push the definition as wide as you will let me get away with to include cards that aren't made of cardboard (though that doesn't stop others from rolling their eyes!!!!) and some that aren't even shaped like cards. Too much?? Just say "when"!!!

Foreign cards from Canada, Germany, Australia and many other countries that  have put out ST cards. ST cards in non-ST sets. Some are Trek-related with Trek images. Some are of the actors in different roles. Action Figure cards and Pogs-A daunting task! If you collect cards, but don't collect toys, this is a maddening collectible area, but fun nonetheless. Pogs-To borrow (steal??) a quote from my friend Sam, "Pogs, a card by any other name"   Checklists- printable checklists of different categories. Still a work in progress. Stickers-ST stickers, either as part of a card set or a set to themselves. Phone Cards- Collect cards, make phone calls! Metallic Impressions produced a line of metallic cards. Hamilton Collectibles did porcelain cards...go figure! Scoreboard produced a series of 23 karat gold ST cards. Collier Newfield/Atlas has a series of 8x11 ST facts and pictures that go into a binder. (not really a card set!)

What IS this Card??!!
Looking for info on cards we have run across, but can't identify!

Anyone know how these cards were released? HWOF cards in special holders with embossed signatures.
Set of cards possibly from videos in the UK.
Blank (grey backed) uncut sheet of 4 TNG cards with no copyright information. Possibly from the '90's. 
Series of oversized (4x6), blank backed cards that came in a sealed black envelope, copyright 2000. Likely a UK video set, follows their pattern.
Cards are 4 1/2 by 6 and are blank on back except the the artist name and date of 1992.

Lot of pogs, but no information on if they are offical or fan-made. No identifying marks. (Thanks, Jeff)

These are 1996 German TOS stickers from Frigeo "Space Rolls" candy. They look a lot like Fritt stickers, but are smaller, about 1.5 x 2 inches. This is a shot of the silver holo sticker from the outside of the package, plus 1-11, 13, and 14. (Thanks, Larry!)

This is a lot of 3 oddball *cards* I won off Ebay (Thanks, Mike). They are standard card sized on sort of a vinyl (?) stock. The DS9 cards have the same front and back, the other TNG card has a TOS back.

Here is an odd one..this is normal card sized, on thick cardboard stock, blank on back, no identifying marks. **One roving reporter (Thanks, WLS) reports that this is IDENTICAL to the top of a Voyager Profiles box and wonders if someone cut them down to make *cards*

Anyone recognize these cards? Some non-Trek cards appear to also be a part of this set.

 

What IS the $100 FC promo card Collect mentions? After the release of the card set, First Contact reported that there was a promo card for First Contact that sounded alot like the Phase III common single that promotes the movie, card #291. Collect never produced any information on the card beyond guiding it with a value of $100 and stating it had been told to them by two different dealers.

All we know about this sticker set is that it is from Australia, a set of 20 stickers from Pauls in 1979. Recognize them? We now know of 23 different stickers. (11/23/07)
