ST:VI TUC Operation Retrieve Command Briefing

I wanted to post that here my latest replica - a half scale version of the Operation Retrieve Command Briefing briefly seen in The Undiscovered Country, but more so in a cut scene from the movie.

Originally this prop was disposed of after filming wrapped, but Penny Juday (former Paramount Trek archivist) saved the piece after she saw it in the dumpster pile.

I was fortunate enough to have it in my possession for a while, and while I did, I was able to document enough of it to fully reproduce it via Illustrator and from there into this half scale version.

Additionally, I added the Enterprise graphic we see Montgomery Scott referencing while searching for the EVA gear and zero gravity boots, minus his red markings.

...

"We've prepared Operation retrieve based on the rising danger of terrorism between the Klingon Empire and the Federation.

"Sir, we can go in, rescue the hostages, and get out in 24 hours with an acceptable rate of loss in manpower, and equipment.

"We have the technology to..."

"Yes, yes, but suppose you precipitate a full-scale war?"

"Then quite frankly Mr. President, we can clean their Kronometers."

That's a nice replica. Having it in half scale also makes it more manageable to not only display but post out aswell.
Great work.
