On August 17-20th, we attended Creation's 40th Anniversary of Star Trek convention at the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas. In the dealer room, Christie's had a booth with a sampling of the complete collection. They had a couple of Christie's staffers at the booth available to answer any questions on the Christie's auction. There were also a couple of the catalgues on display for anyone to page through to see the details of all the items in the auction. |

At the Christie's booth in Las Vegas we saw the following items on display: Uhura's Klingon Reference books
from Star Trek 6, a Bar Waitress costume from Star
Trek 3, one of Seven of Nine's jumpsuits, Janeway's desktop computer,
and the items pictured below.

"Captain Picard" (left) was present at Vegas and the Christies auction. He wore several nice Picard uniforms at the Vegas convention and also won a Nemesis Reman costume at the auction. |

We visited the Christie's booth often during the
convention and we met John who was conducting
interviews of fans, dealers, actors and anyone effected by the Star Trek auction.
The interviews would be compiled into a documentary of this historic auction and
aired on television a few months later. John and his film crew
interviewed us right in the booth, asking us questions about us, our interest in
the auction and Trek. In addition to the pictures above we took several closeup pictures of the Romulan Warbird and the small Enterprise A filming models. ( To see these pictures and other detailed model pictures, click on the "Detailed Model Pics" chapter link below.) | ||
