In 2013 I acquired three cards from the Topps 1976 Star Trek set on eBay. I posted them here.
So imagine my delight it finding that there was this card in 2015 Topps Heritage. A card from an actual baseball card set featuring Star Trek!

Even better, the card features Leonard Nimoy, the actor who made Mr. Spock a real character. Although Nimoy was an actor in many other plays and films, an accomplished director, and a poet, to his legions of fans he'll always be that "pointed-eared Vulcan". Leonard Nimoy passed away on February 27, 2015, between the time I ordered this card on eBay and when I received it.

I was very pleased to have pulled this card recently. I could've done without the "geeky" crack on the back of the card. Please, we are nerds, we are not geeks. :-)
Well, there it is....a 2015 card I'd actually like to own.
