* himself in self-insertion illos with Flanery or Mason as she and Spock snuggle, make a wish over splitting a turkey wishbone
* in settings that portray his popularity (sitting on bags of mail, shielding his eyes from the flash of cameras, charming a young fan)
* characters in movies, plays, and books he didn't appear in ("Anna and the King of Siam" and "Laurence of Arabia" and as J.R.R. Tolkien's Aragorn)
