He shed some new light, confirming the origin and explaining that both of James Doohan's sons, (Chris and Montgomery) were in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. He had the photo below in an article he wrote which you can read here:


So the shirt was screen-used, just not by James Doohan. :-)

I talked to Chris Doohan about this and he was aware of the auction and says he even put in a bid for the shirt. He also said he sent the winner an email, as well as emailed Its A Wrap (albeit after it ended), he hasn't heard from either.

I wonder if (now that the winner knows the truth) if the winner will still pay for the shirt. I am not sure of the rules, but it appears to me that Its A Wrap mislabled the sale and therefore the winner may be able to get out of it if he wants
