Provenance

Where it came from

The Captain Jean-Luc Picard card, numbered 497, originates from the expansive Star Trek trading card series that chronicled the enduring legacy of the franchise. Produced to satisfy a dedicated fan base, these cards were designed to serve as both historical snapshots of the series' character development and as collectible artifacts that celebrated the cultural impact of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The design of this series drew heavily from the visual aesthetic of the shows, utilizing iconic production stills and character profiles to evoke the spirit of the U.S.S. Enterprise crew. At the time of their release, such cards were intended to ground the science fiction experience in tangible form, and they were generally well-received by fans for their archival quality and commitment to preserving the lore of Captain Picard’s command.
