Kirk kiss toga to boldly go for £46,000
Capt Kirk & Lt Uhura THE toga Captain Kirk wore in Star Trek when he had one of the first interracial kisses on TV is set to sell for €52,000.
William Shatner wore the maroon Grecian toga when he locked lips with Lieutenant Uhura actress Nichelle Nichols in 1968.
And the green tunic worn by Mr Spock actor Leonard Nimoy in the same episode, Plato’s Stepchildren, has a €26,000 tag.
Show bosses feared a backlash to the kiss in the US South but Nichols said just one fan wrote to Star Trek creator Gene Rodenberry to complain.
Auction house Prop Store said: “It is a historic item from one of the most popular TV and film franchises of all time.”
The sale in California is on December 1.
