Dave Arland: Star Trek

Hooked on the music, the message, the props and its optimistic tone, Dave became enamored with Star Trek as a kid and never looked back. Since the 70’s he’s been an avid collector of not only screen-used props like Tribbles or even the space panel button from Kirk’s chair but has also amassed some amazing-looking replica items like the 3D chess set and Star Trek communicator that look as good as the real thing. Joining Dave today is his supportive wife Karen, who also likes Star Trek, just not as much as her husband. Our pop culture expert Mark Short will assess Dave’s collection and then offer him a trade-- his screen-used Star Trek prop, for one of Dave’s.
