The idea came from watching hours of <em>Monty Python&#8217;s Flying Circus<\/em> as a kid.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For <em>Requiem for Methuselah<\/em>, Flint is holding the Enterprise. &#8220;In the episode, Flint shrinks the Enterprise down in order to keep her crew from leaving and telling the universe about him. I thought it would make a good visual if Flint were holding it. It shows off his power and makes him more god-like than if he were empty-handed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ortiz&#8217;s favorite poster is the <em>Assignment: Earth<\/em> one, for a very male reason. &#8220;I love <strong>Teri Garr<\/strong>,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The prints, which are sold as a set of four, sell for $34.95 and can purchased <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.startrek.com\/star-trek-the-original-series-art-prints-set-10\/detail.php?p=450622&amp;v=startrek_home-office_posters\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Click on the thumbnails for larger images.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Menagerie.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-25526\" title=\"Menagerie\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Menagerie-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Menagerie-75x75@2x.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Menagerie-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Menagerie-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Spocksbrain.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-25532\" title=\"Spocksbrain\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Spocksbrain-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Spocksbrain-75x75@2x.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Spocksbrain-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Spocksbrain-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Requiem.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-25535\" title=\"Requiem\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Requiem-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Requiem-75x75@2x.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Requiem-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Requiem-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/AssignmentEarth1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-25544\" title=\"AssignmentEarth\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/AssignmentEarth1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/AssignmentEarth1-75x75@2x.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/AssignmentEarth1-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/AssignmentEarth1-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new month means four new original series posters from Juan Ortiz.
