William Shatner 
Born March 22, 1931- Canada

These carved emu eggs feature a truly fine actor,  William Shatner, in his Star Trek role as James Tiberius Kirk, captain of the starship Enterprise.  Prior to assuming the Enterprise bridge in 1966, Shatner had moved from being an established stage actor to playing major roles in such films as  The Brothers Karamazov (1958), The Explosive Generation (1961), Judgment at Nuremberg (1961), Shame (1962), Intruder (1962) and Outrage (1964) - as well as making  numerous television appearances.  Although the Star Trek series  was deemed a commercial failure and ran only from 1966 - 1969, Shatner did not disappear into obscurity.  While continuing to make guest appearances on various television shows and starring in a couple of short lived series; he took starring roles in a variety of movies, some good, some regrettable, before fans demanded the return of the Star Trek crew to the big screen in 1979. Since that time there have been more guest appearances than we have room to mention and many movie roles (see partial list to left).  The two eggs below are called

"Dueling Kirks" by the customer who commissioned them.  I believe this came from Episode 5 "The Enemy Within" where due to a transporter accident we wound up with two Kirks, one good and one bad.  Can you tell which is which?

In addition to his work as an actor, Shatner has authored at least 10 books, directed and/or produced many movies.  Please don't send an email about our not mentioning Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - that was deliberate......

Our favorite William Shatner role?  Who could forget him as the "Big Giant Head" on 3rd Rock from the Sun?

The James T. Kirk Carved Emu Egg can become a personalized gift with an inscription on the back and comes with a hand turned hardwood egg stand.

Because of the variations of color and texture inherent in the emu egg itself, each carved egg will be unique and make a distinctive addition to any decor or collection.  Whether you are looking for a distinctive housewarming gift, birthday present or other special occasion gift, this carved egg would be a wonderful surprise for any Star Trek fan who already "has everything".
