STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT (1996) - Michael and Denise Okuda Collection: Set of 16 Production-Made Phoenix Missile Silo Signs - A set of 16 Phoenix missile silo signs from the production of Jonathan Frakes' Star Trek: First Contact. Dr. Zefrem Cochrane (James Cromwell) constructed the world's first man-made, warp drive-capable spacecraft, the Phoenix, inside a missile silo in Bozeman, Montana.

Created for the production but ultimately unused in the final cut, this set comes from the collection of celebrated Star Trek franchise artists and advisors Michael and Denise Okuda. It consists of four signs labeled "41 Hoom"; four labeled "1:3 440-VR"; two labeled "Emergency Use Only MY2.1"; two labeled "Emergency Use Only GS3.2"; two labeled "MT FNC Though their long and celebrated careers in the Star Trek world began in features, Michael and Denise Okuda established themselves as franchise legends while working on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Michael became art supervisor on TNG, while Denise came on as a scenic artist during Deep Space Nine, roles they would continue to perform through Voyager, Enterprise, and the Next Generation films. Married in 1993, the Okudas are known as the driving forces behind the development of many of the now-iconic 24th-century technologies seen throughout the series, including the famous "Okudagrams" they created for the LCARS (Library Computer Access and Retrieval System) interfaces . Propstore is proud to present a selection of key memorabilia from the personal collection of one of the franchise's most important creative teams to the public for the first time.
