Unseen & Epic: 49 Jaw-Dropping Pics of the Original Star Trek Cast That’ll Blow Your Mind From ’69 to ’79!
18. Love and the second act
Actor William Shatner and actress Marcy Lafferty pose after revealing their marriage in a private ceremony held at the Los Angeles home of Lafferty’s father, CBS executive Perry Lafferty. The marriage, his second, would last for over two decades—spanning Star Trek’s resurgence and Shatner’s own evolution into a pop culture legend.
19. Taking the helm
James Doohan and George Takei suit up (in very 1970s attire) for a photo op on a fan-built Enterprise bridge at a 1973 Star Trek convention. Doohan, ever the engineer, looks right at home in the captain’s chair, while Takei channels full Sulu energy at the controls. These lovingly crafted sets were a hallmark of early conventions—DIY, delightfully imperfect, and totally thrilling to fans who’d never imagined they’d see the crew back on the bridge, even in wood paneling and cardboard stars.
