Star Trek 50th Anniversary- Lenticular Souvenir Sheet Official First Day Cover Collectible Postage Stamps Canada

This souvenir sheet Official First Day Cover (OFDC) uses lenticular printing technique to pay homage to the technology and artistry of the original Star Trek series. It showcases two stamps that pay tribute to the futuristic vision of series creator Gene Roddenberry. One features the transporter used to beam people from one location to another in the blink of an eye; the other, a scene from the penultimate episode in the series’ first season, “The City On the Edge of Forever.” Stamp designer Kosta Tsetsekas, of Vancouver-based Signals Design Group, saw the lenticular technique, an opportunity to recognize both the show’s futuristic vision and the now old-fashioned special effects that brought it to life.
