"Star Trek: The Next Generation" was a popular spin-off of the classic sci-fi series of the 1960s, running on network TV from 1987-94. This metal spear was used in at least one episode of the run. It is 75" long including the red, plastic tip which is meant to resemble flame (and is loose, so use caution in handling). An electrical cord emanates from the base. Trekkies will get a kick out of this fun, totemistic piece of television scenery.
