Premiere Props have listed their next auction with online bidding partners iCollector, LiveAuctioneers, and ArtFact as part of their “Hollywood Extravaganza XII”. The two-day auction is scheduled for November 23-24, currently featuring over 1,000 lots (though it appears more than half of that are not props and costumes but comic books, posters, and other memorabilia). As with past auctions, the sale includes a mix of original props, costumes, and other film and television artifacts, as well as general Hollywood Memorabilia. There are many vintage off the shelf antiques attributed to film and television productions with no explanation as to how and why such claims are made.
More details about the actual auction can be found on the official Premiere Props website at www.premiereprops.com:
The Original Prop Blog reported on the mention in some of these auction listings of their new “Movie Props DNA / MPDNA” authentication earlier this year, but had not obtained any additional information. Only select items boast such authentication this time around, such as the “rehearsal” (?) horses head from The Godfather.
The auction event is scheduled to take place at the Premiere Props offices in El Segundo, California.
