Profiles in History

STAR TREK. (NBC-TV, 1966-69) Captain James T. Kirk’s pea green velour jersey tunic with black knit collar, gold Starfleet command insignia on the chest, and gold braid ranking stripes on each cuff. The tunic has a concealed zipper on the left shoulder, and an internal white label in the collar handwritten “Bill Shatner #2”. Also identifying this as a Shatner tunic are three pleats on each side of the torso, as his were the only Star Trek tunics constructed with this special detail. Early Shatner tunics are exceedingly rare, and this is without question the finest example we’ve ever encountered. A fantastic and instantly-recognizable garment worn by the star of the show, this important piece of science fiction history remains in absolutely pristine condition.
