Large Auburn Tribble Prop from Episode, "The Trouble with Tribbles" of Star Trek: The Original Series (Paramount TV, 1966-1969).

Vintage original "Tribble" prop constructed of synthetic auburn faux fur, open on the bottom, possibly for electronics or puppeteering, and stuffed with cotton batting. Measuring 10" x 6" oblong. From writer David Gerrold's unforgettable episode "The Trouble with Tribbles". With a spaceship full of these benign furry creatures, it's quickly realized that the cute, purring life forms multiply far too quickly -- and eat incessantly -- leading to problems for the crew of the Enterprise. Exhibiting only minor age and production handling. Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the Collection of Greg Jein.
