STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES (1966-1969) - Spock's (Leonard Nimoy) Screen-Matched Season 3 Tricorder - Spock's (Leonard Nimoy) screen-matched Season 3 tricorder from Gene Roddenberry's television series Star Trek: The Original Series. The tricorders, originally designed by Wah Chang, were altered for the series' third and final season with slight differences, including new black leatherette paneling. Distinctive markings in the metal and leatherette match to close-up shots of Spock's tricorder in the Season 3 episode "Day of the Dove." Screen-matched props from Star Trek: The Original Series are exceedingly rare.

Gene Roddenberry's groundbreaking original Star Trek series was hugely influential on the science fiction genre and spawned a massive multimedia franchise covering various television series, theatrical films, comics, video games, and more over the course of over 58 years and is still going strong today.

This tricorder is made primarily of metal with black leather paneling; a gold-color mesh sensor embellishment; three simulated lights in red, yellow, and blue with corresponding buttons beneath them; a small gray viewscreen; and a black leather strap for carrying. The top front panel opens to reveal a ribbed metal cylinder and a circular gold-color spiral embellishment meant to simulate a speaker; while the bottom panel opens up to a small storage space. The tricorder exhibits scuffing, discoloration, wear and loosening along the edges and corners of the leather, and the bottom panel sticks. Dimensions: 5" x 2" x 7" (12.75 cm x 5.25 cm x 18 cm)

Estimate: $75,000 - 150,000
