“We saw sales of everything from a classic Audrey Hepburn Gown to wands from the Harry Potter franchise. The incredible piece of art from Blade Runner is the highest priced matte painting Propstore has ever auctioned.

“Most of all, it has been an honour to bring the second and final part of Anthony Daniels (C-3PO actor) to auction, with his head from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi selling for $843,750. And that was just day one.  

“There are two more days for people to get involved and win their own piece of movie history, with items for new and experienced collectors alike”.
