Auction of props: Prop Store to Sell Harry Potter's Magic Wand and "Star Wars" droid
On June 29, the Prop Store Auction, organized by a large company specializing in the sale of souvenirs, starts. The auction will be held in Los Angeles (USA) and will end on July 1. The auction will be of interest to fans of cinematic cycles about Harry Potter, Indiana Jones and other famous science fiction and adventure films.
In total, it is planned to put up for sale more than 1,200 items that were once props on film sets. Buyers will be able to purchase a magic wand and glasses that Daniel Radcliffe wore on the set of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". The initial cost of each of the items, according to experts, can be 30-50 thousand dollars. At least 150 thousand dollars is estimated to be a hat made of suede, in which Harrison Ford starred in the film "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom". For connoisseurs of rarities associated with the "Star Wars" movie saga, the organizers also prepared surprises. The auction will put up one of the droids, the model R2-SHP, which was lit up in the movie "Skywalker. Sunrise". This item can go under the hammer for at least 120 thousand dollars.

His hobby has grown into something more: Today, his company is thriving, with more than 30 employees working to ensure that collectors from all over the world can get rare items involved in filming.
