I started taking pictures of the television screen back in the late 1970s of my favorite shows. Of course, Star Trek is one of my all time favorites. Using the multiple-exposure feature on my Minolta XD11, I would take multiple screenshots on one frame - kind of like my version of a Viewmaster reel. This particular episode was "The Doomsday Machine." This was at the end of the episode when Kirk and Spock were reviewing what just happened.

The lab I was sending my film to to be developed always did this to the final frame of each roll. They would flash some kind of code, I suppose to identify who's film is was and then tape each roll end-to-end to be developed. This process usually ruined the last perfectly good frame on my rolls because, if you would work it right, you could get one extra shot on the roll past frame number 24. But the lab would always do this, ruining it.
