STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES (1966-1969) - Framed Hand-Drawn Wah Chang Tricorder Concept Illustration - A framed tricorder concept illustration hand-drawn by renowned visual effects artist Wah Chang for Gene Roddenberry's television series Star Trek. Chang designed several iconic contraptions and creatures for the series, including phasers, Tribbles, and tricorders, and later built the first two tricorders for Roddenberry's approval in his Altadena, CA, shed. This concept illustration remained in Chang's possession into the 1980s.

This concept illustration is rendered and signed in pencil on drawing paper by Chang and mounted behind glass in a wood frame painted black. The reverse is labeled "Pre-Production Tri-Corder Star Trek Wah Chang" and numbered "40A." The frame exhibits significant chipping on the bottom left with paint flaking and nicks throughout. Dimensions: (framed) 12" x 15" x 0.5" (30.5 cm x 38.25 cm x 1.5 cm)

Sold without copyright; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.
