A Starfleet admiral uniform from the production of Robert Wise's space adventure Star Trek: The Motion Picture. The Star Trek franchise's first theatrical venture introduced a refit Enterprise, new uniforms, and the newly promoted Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner).

Starfleet Admiral costumes were predominantly worn by Kirk within the film, though it cannot be ruled out that another actor may have also played an Admiral in the film at some point. The silk-lined, linen-blend uniform consists of a green and tan top with a zip back and hook-and-clasp collar, and a matching pair of green pants with shoe stirrups. The top includes a front belt life support monitor buckle made of plastic. The top and pants both include Western Costume Co. wardrobe tags complete with sizing information and the numbers "2254 - I" and "2254 - 2," respectively. Sewn onto the jacket, at a later point, are inaccurate rank insignia in the form of captain rank sleeve stripes (instead of rear admiral stripes) and triangle patches on the epaulettes (instead of star patches).  The lot is in good overall condition with some signs of wear from production and age, including staining throughout the jacket.

Estimate: $7,000 - 9,000
