— Stephen Lane, Founder and CEO of Propstore LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, October 9, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Propstore, one of the world’s premier entertainment memorabilia auctioneers, has today announced its highly anticipated annual live auction of film and TV memorabilia from November 14-17, 2024, with the collection expected to fetch over $12 million.
Over 1,800 rare and iconic artifacts will hit the auction block during Propstore's Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction. The lineup features pieces worn or used by stars like Russell Crowe, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Tom Hardy, Elizabeth Taylor, Tom Hanks, Clint Eastwood, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Michael J. Fox, among others. In a historic highlight, this event will also feature the largest-ever auction of Noel Gallagher’s guitars, handwritten "Wonderwall" lyrics, and other Oasis memorabilia—just in time for the band's reunion tour.
Registration is now open online at propstoreauction.com/auctions. Online proxy bids can be submitted from October 15, 2024. In-room bidding will be open to the public at BAFTA 195 Piccadilly, London on the 14 & 15 November 2024. Online and telephone bids can be placed across the whole event from 3PM GMT each day.
