STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES (1966-1969) - Leonard "Bones" McCoy's (DeForest Kelley) Starfleet Medical Tunic with Officer Pants - Leonard "Bones" McCoy's (DeForest Kelley) Starfleet medical tunic with a pair of officer pants from Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek. Bones, the chief medical officer of the USS Enterprise and loyal friend to its Captain, James T. Kirk (William Shatner), wore his signature blue tunic while conducting medical procedures throughout the series, including in the Season 1 episodes "The Naked Time" and "Space Seed."

Designed by William Ware Theiss, McCoy's costumes distinguished him as an officer of high integrity and disposability, in contrast, for example, to the "Redshirts" who also appeared in the series. The look is today inseparable from McCoy's role in television history, which earned the actor who portrayed him a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1991.

This lot originated from the collection of legendary franchise modelmaker Greg Jein. It consists of a blue polyfiber quarter-sleeve tunic with a ringed collar and a gold-color lame and black thread Starfleet Science insignia patch emblazoned on the chest. Also included is a pair of black polyester pants with both zipper and hook-and-eye closures, "P27" and "34" handwritten on the interior, and a wardrobe tag on the interior hand-marked "34W" and "I23" for an unidentified Starfleet officer by production. The tunic also appears on pages 36 and 37 of Paula M. Block and Terry J. Erdmann's Star Trek Costumes. It exhibits some striped staining around its hem and minor fraying to the insignia, while the pants exhibit white stains and residue down by the legs.

Estimate: $25,000 - 50,000
