Hello, We have this great READ/COLLECTOR OWNED vintage The Making of Star Trek What it is-how it happed-how it works book. This book is a paperback and is the first printing, September 1968. This is a TRUE FIRST EDITION by Ballantine Books. It was written by Stephen E. Whitfield and Gene Roddenberry. This book is out-of-print and hard to find. Title: The Making of Star Trek Author: Stephen E. Whitfield and Gene Roddenberry Binding: Paperback Publication Date: September 1968 Publisher: Ballantine Books The book has noticeable areas of shelf wear; it is mostly fraying around all of the corners/edges, there is tanning (yellowing) to the pages from age; and there are some areas of discoloration to the covers (as well as light surface scratches) throughout. I also see dog ears on a few of the pages. Please view all the pictures.
