Klingon's Black and Gold Tunic - STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES (1966 - 1969) - THE TROUBLE WITH TRI


A Klingon metallic knit tunic from Gene Roddenberry’s space adventure Star Trek: The Original Series. This custom-made gold and black striped tunic features a bateau neckline, raw hem, and extra wide arm holes for layering. This costume has been meticulously cared for and immediately following production was stored away from the damaging conditions often seen with traditional studio storage. Thereafter, archived by the Comisar Collection, it has been meticulously cared for and stored in a light, climate and humidity controlled fine art warehouse. The tunic is in excellent, production-used, vintage condition overall indicative of its provenance, with two slight thread pulls in back. The tunic has been taken in approximately 1 ½” to fit a smaller actor, which demonstrates, due to budget constraints, the need for a few such costumes to be refitted and reused over multiple episodes.

Black and gold tunics appear on Klingon warriors throughout the series, including in the classic episode ‘The Trouble with Tribbles’ (215).
