Star Trek TOS Archives and Inscriptions (Rittenhouse Archives, 2020)
Just got my box a few minutes ago. Here's what was in box 3570:
1 set of 98 base cards, with 16 duplicate numbers with different quotes
2 City on the Edge of Forever 9 and 39.
2 Heroes and Villains Expansion
1 Inscription autograph
Emily Banks as Tonia Barrows "Tonia Barrows" Scarce
1 Regular Autograph
Julie Ann Johnson as Yeoman Landon

Thoughts about this set:
I like the base set and the idea of multiple quotes, all the extra base cards were secondary cast, not the main cast members. Good luck on completing the 44 City on the Edge of Forever set, you will only need 22 boxes. The 2 autos are not major cast, but I do not have either of them in my Trek auto collection.

Preferably inscribed "Meow"?

How did you know?
BTW, I bought one on E-Bay, the bordered, for what I hope was a good price, two to go.

I make exceptions for what I consider exceptional cards. This does not happen very often.

She was on the show for only a few seconds, and yet fifty years later, we all still remember her. I also recall that the Gary Seven character was going to have his own show but it never got off the ground. I think it would have been fun. The current Star Trek producers could still do something with the idea whether as a movie or one of those 8 episode projects everybody seems to be doing now for Netflix or whatever.

Will you send in the redemption card or keep it as part of a complete set, searching for the redeemed card on E-Bay or wherever?

That is why I always disliked redemption cards.

Opened 2 boxes.

Haven't sorted the base cards but first box had two autographs but neither was an inscription one.

Autos
first box
Mal Freidman as Hendorff in The Apple (A297)
Julie Ann Johnson as Yoeman landon in The Apple (A307)

second box
George Takei as Sulu - inscription "Lt. Sulu"
Louise Sorel as Rayna Kapec (silver ink)

Others
The City on the Edge of Forever 1, 2, 22, 39
Heroes and Villains 105 (x2) (Captain Christopher), 108 (Elias Sandoval), 115 (Sarek)


Sorted the base cards
first box was missing 3 base cards and the second box was missing 24.
The missing 3 from the first box were also missing from the second box.
None of the extras from the first box made up the missing ones for the second.

Seems unlike RA to be so far off, you should contact them. You need at least one base set.

Perhaps they are aware of some packing problems, but as long as you got a swift correction that's all you can ask for, so kudos to RA's customer service. Thumb Up

I chose to send in the redemption card. It would have been nice if you could have redeemed it through a unique alpha-numeric code so you could keep the redemption card as it came.

Rittenhouse is going to send my missing base cards with the redemption set. Their customer service replied very quickly.

I have gotten my 3 strikes on the April Tatro autograph cards, shown here with a sketch card by Richard Salvucci I bought on E-Bay in 2010, mistakenly identifying the actress playing Isis as Victoria Veri, against a lobby card from 1957's THE CAT GIRL. Can you guess the theme here?
