STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE (1993-1999) - Michael and Denise Okuda Collection: Set of Production-Made Alien Signage - Alien signage from the production of Rick Berman's and Michael Piller's television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Signage in various alien languages and representing the insignia of such races as Klingon, Cardassian, Bajoran, and Ferengi, amongst many others, appeared on the titular space station and the ships that came through its sector throughout the series.

This lot comes from the collection of celebrated Star Trek franchise artists and advisors Michael and Denise Okuda. It consists of two posters on boards, each applied with a variety of alien signs and insignia decals, as well as one glossy cardboard signpost with an eye-shaped emblem at the top, all of which were made by production as reference pieces. One board exhibits residue from four pieces of tape used to apply now-missing signs, while both boards and the signpost exhibit some bending and creasing from handling. Dimensions: (largest) 30" x 20" (76.25 cm x 51 cm)Though their long and celebrated careers in the Star Trek world began in features, Michael and Denise Okuda established themselves as franchise legends while working on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Michael became art supervisor on TNG, while Denise came on as a scenic artist during Deep Space Nine, roles they would continue to perform through Voyager, Enterprise, and the Next Generation films. Married in 1993, the Okudas are known as the driving forces behind the development of many of the now-iconic 24th-century technologies seen throughout the series, including the famous "Okudagrams" they created for the LCARS (Library Computer Access and Retrieval System) interfaces . Propstore is proud to present a selection of key memorabilia from the personal collection of one of the franchise's most important creative teams to the public for the first time.
