Oddest Use of the Enterprise in the Art World?

This was one of my favorites...from the day the warp nacelles were heavily venting plasma and the shuttle bay was on fire. ;)

Blame NBC for this one, it their own publicity brochure. :confused:
 
Hey, I have that book. Loved everyone of them, especially the Alan Dean Foster adaptations of TAS. Those covers are classics.

:guffaw: LMAO!!! BTW, Classic Fan, love the avatar! Just love it!

Thanks. :thumbsup:

I was in hysterics when i first saw it.

Its actually from t shirt, i have loads of quirky t shirts, i love em, i try not to be dull and boring. I wear different colour converse on each foot in different combinations everyday for gods sake, im no 'beige' person.

Anyway, I saw it onsale online, but they didn't ship to the UK, bastards. Ive scoured the entire internet for one, but cant find any. :(

I blew it up and I see ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Why would the Enterprise be in a MLK drawing?

Geez, you guys are so helpless. Screen grab it, take it into into a paint program, and punch the contrast around.

(and don't tell me it's not the Enterprise...I've seen the work life size and in person)

As to why the Enterprise is in the image, the piece *is* called "1968", a year in which both the asassination and Star Trek happened, and the artwork can be taken as just two unrelated events of that year, or read as a wry comment on conspiracy theories, the conflicting stories surrounding the event, and the way events like this become parts of pop culture.

Or do I have to explain everything that doesn't have a kewl BOP in it? :D
