Joseph did his Trek work mainly because of her enthusiasm.<br /><br />Joseph's <i>Star Trek Blueprints</i> and <i>Star Fleet Technical Manual</i> were indeed done under license from Paramount. However, there's a twist. At the time the work was commissioned, Paramount allowed FJ to copyright both works in his name, rather than in Paramount's. As such, while they had the legal right to distribute them through Ballantine Books, they did not have actual ownership of the material.<br /><br />A really good set of interviews and commentary that can explain all of this in more detail may be found <a href="http://www.trekplace.com/interviews/franzjoseph.shtml" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />-<b>MMoM</b> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
