Pristine Condition Card

Please inquire if you see anything about the pictured card that looks like a flaw.  I took many of the pictures with card still in the penny sleeve and noticed the camera sometimes picks up imperfections on the plastic and makes a glare that looks like white dots or lines.

Own a Piece of Sci-Fi History – Trading Card from the Collection of Greg Jein.

As an added bonus, this rare trading card once owned by Emmy nominated, Star Trek Hall of Famer, legendary model maker and creator of the 1701-D filming model, Greg Jein. 

Collect the Collector's Collection!

In October 2023, a massive auction sold hundreds of items from Greg Jein's legendary collection. This card was not one of them, but I acquired it and over 1,000 more items from Jein's collection in the years since the auction.  Hosted by Heritage Auctions, this record-breaking event generated $13,610,156 in total sales, outpacing the famous Julien's Marilyn Monroe auction in November 2016, which totaled nearly $11 million.

The Greg Jein Collection

This card comes from Jein’s personal collection, which I’ve carefully acquired over the past 2 years through multiple sources. Specifically, this card was one of over 300 items I received directly from the individual managing Greg Jein’s estate.  In total, I have over 1,000 items, not including cards. While I’ve kept the majority of his collection for my own archive, I’m not a card collector—so I’m offering this and a few others to help fund the continued preservation and expansion of the Greg Jein legacy.

Greg Jein was a master craftsman whose work helped define the visual language of science fiction. Best known for his contributions to Star Trek, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and Blade Runner, Jein’s models brought imagination to life with stunning realism and detail. His artistry earned him multiple Emmy nominations and a place in the hearts of fans and creators alike. This card is more than a collectible—it’s a tribute to a visionary who shaped the future by hand.  He will truly be missed, but his amazing legacy lives on.
