Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home - "Gareth" Art

The international art for Star Trek IV's theatrical poster campaigns is credited only to "Gareth." I have not been able to determine whether this is a first or last name, or locate any other information on the artist.

The purpose of this entry is to highlight a couple of stray uses of the Gareth artwork. Above, a lobby card for Star Trek IV (one of a set); this is the only time I have seen the Gareth art text-free (be sure to click the image above for a hi-resolution version).

Below, a VHS front cover for Star Trek IV from Sweden (where the film is known as Resan hem; translated, "The journey home"). This artwork is unique as far as I know: it fuses the Gareth art with Bob Peak's U.S. theatrical art for the film. It sort of works!

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home German Home Video Release Poster (Year Unknown)

 

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (Zurück in die Gegenwart) German home video release poster. (Title translation: "Back to the present.")

Size: German A1 (23" x 33")
Artist/Illustrator: Bob Peak
Designer: Spiros Angelikas
Release Year: 1987 (Theatrical)
Region: Germany
Notes:

  • This is almost certainly a poster for the home video release (though those typically feature pricing and/or release date information)—note the "CIC Video" logo in the bottom right. Outside the U.S., CIC Video was Paramount's distribution arm for home video releases from 1980-2000 (Wikipedia).
  • This is possibly a West German poster, as I am not sure of the release date for the German-language home video release of STIV, nor am I sure when this poster was printed (STIV was released theatrically in West Germany March 26, 1987).
  • Note that the only German language on the poster is the German titlethe credits block and logotypes are in English.
  • This artwork was also used for a Japanese B2 theatrical poster and a Japanese souvenir program, as well as for the North American theatrical release poster, a Spanish theatrical release poster, and a French promo poster.
