An Autographed Contract (measures 8 1/2" x 13" [22 x 33 cm]) (Learn More) Gene Roddenberry was a writer and producer from the 1950s to the 1990s. He is best-known for his creation of the "Star Trek" franchise, starting with the classic TV series in 1966. In 1985, he became the first TV writer with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and he was later inducted by both the Science Fiction Hall of Fame and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Hall of Fame. He passed away in 1991 at the age of 70. Years after he died, Roddenberry was one of the first humans to have his ashes carried into Earth's orbit. Some of his other works include: Pretty Maids All in a Row, West Point, Whiplash, and Have Gun - Will Travel Important Added Info: Note that this contract has been personally autographed (signed) by Gene Roddenberry! It is a contract to write a pilot for a TV show that was to be called "The Second Lieutenant", but when it became a series, the title was changed to "The Lieutenant". The show ran from 1963 to 1964, and it starred Gary Lockwood, who would memorably star in a Star Trek episode a few years later. Many other actors who would later appear on Star Trek also appeared on this series, including Leonard Nimoy! It comes with a letter related to the contract, as well as a rider to the contract, but neither of those items are signed by Mr. Roddenberry. Also note that the item comes with a "letter of authenticity" from PSA/DNA. As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased (although we prefer they do any "authenticating" while the auction is "live" and before they place a bid) and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good.
