A huge cache of rare Hollywood memorabilia is up for sale at a London auction on September 20. The catalog includes over 600 items from movies like Back to the Future, Blade Runner, Batman, Blues Brothers, Die Hard, Goonies, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, James Bond, Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, Star Wars, Superman, Terminator, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and X-Men.
Among the most valuable and unique items are the iconic Indiana Jones hat worn by Harrison Ford in Raiders of the Lost Ark (estimate £200,000-£300,000):
They’re also selling Indy’s bullwhip from Temple of Doom (estimate £50,000-£70,000).
The most expensive item is Han Solo’s jacket from Empire Strikes Back (£500,000-£1,000,000):
Pairs nicely with this stormtrooper helmet from the first film (estimate £40,000-£60,000):
Marty McFly’s hoverboard from Back to the Future II (estimate £30,000-£50,000):
They’re also offering the DeLorean’s OUTATIME license plate from the first film (estimate £10,000-£15,000):
A Wonka Bar from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (estimate £8,000-£10,000), a rare item because most props from the film were “destroyed at its Bavarian film studio to allow production to wrap quickly, making way for the immediate filming of Cabaret”:
Captain Picard’s uniform from the first two seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation (£10,000-£15,000):
And a bunch of other stuff, including John McClane’s radio from Die Hard, Edward Scissorhands’ costume, Mikey’s doubloon from The Goonies, a T-800 exoskeleton from Terminator 2, Tom Hanks’ helmet from Saving Private Ryan, a THX 138 license plate from American Graffiti, and a full-size drivable replica of the DeLorean from Back to the Future.
