Catalogue text

This Data Disc was used during the production of Star Trek: The Original Series. These were seen as quite a visionary leap at the time because the rest of the world was still using reel to reel tapes for data storage. One edge is beveled and the opposite edge is slightly rounded. Measures 3" x 3.5". From the collection of Doug Drexler.
