Background Actor Seeking Costume

I received this email from a former Star Trek background actor. Maybe one of you can help! "Hi Alec! I just discovered your blog, and started at the beginning and read it all. Fascinating, to say the least. I am an "old-timer" with STAR TREK, and in fact got to see them shoot some of TOS back in 1967. I was also one of the lucky people who got to work in ST: TMP. and thus, I have to ask you if you might be able to help me locate the uniform I wore in the film. I know there have been a boatload of auctions but have seen my uniform listed. It was a white jumpsuit, science department, women's size 8. Attached is a photo of me in it. I tried to buy it right after the film wrapped, and even with Leonard trying to help me, Western Costume had them all in storage. Since you are a major collector, you might be able to give me some idea if it might be out there someplace and how to search for it! Many thanks! Weezie Louise Stange-Wahl" The Christie...

While some people know this, it is not public knowledge, but last year, I acquired a William Shatner Captain Kirk Tunic. Yes, a holy grail to almost all of us Star Trek prop & costume collectors. It was an amazing find and literally walked in the door of Propworx. (OK, it had help walking in the door). I traded that tunic to another collector, who is now selling it in Profiles in History. Why? Well, it really is an expensive item as we will see when it sells later this month. And it is too expensive for a collector like me. I am not rich and having such an expensive piece of history is just not practical. You can't display it unless you build a very expensive display, and you have to insure it. Also, while I love my collection, a Kirk Tunic, while a Holy Grail, isn't going to make me happy. One week with Damaris' (my best friend) two little 6 year old boys brings more more happiness than any item in my colle...
