Scans from "I Am SPOCK" Part I

Here is the first half of the scans from Nimoy's second autobiography I Am Spock. I have to say I enjoyed this one a lot more because he gets more in depth with the Spock character and we get to learn more about his directing career. These pictures and captions do not belong to me, they belong to their respective owners.
