The world of Star Trek merch design just got a whole lot bigger. Unlicensed fan art has always been something celebrated by the Star Trek community, but this is the first time that fan artists are selling their Star Trek art on tee shirts and other goods under official sanction from CBS.
Supporting independent artists
A new deal between CBS and TeePublic, a website where artists can sell their designs on tee shirts, hoodies, stickers, mugs, and more, has resulted in the approval of dozens of new Star Trek designs. TeePublic is the world’s largest marketplace for independent creators to sell their work on the highest quality merchandise. Every purchase of a newly licensed Star Trek design supports the artist who created it.
Small independent artists can have a difficult time selling their work that celebrates Star Trek due to legal issues surrounding the sale of copyrighted works and difficulties in obtaining an official license such as cost and availability. This first-of-its-kind arrangement between CBS and fan artists opens up a whole new world for Star Trek merchandise.
