There is an enormous number of posters, lobby cards and paper ephemera - rather like the final MGM auction, they're bundling them into large lots. You can safely assume a huge proportion are going to end up on Ebay, particularly if the prices end up anywhere near the estimates.
Several Adrian gowns are amongst the costume highlights, including several from Romeo and Juliet (1936), though some do not look to be in great shape and many are 'made for Production X but not appearing in the finished film'. Later in the auction, there are a few costumes attributed to actors but not productions, including a gorgeous Marion Davies flapper dress, and several pieces for which neither actor nor film could be identified. Do your homework, and you could come away with a bargain.
There are a few curiosities - a bizarre pair of lift shoes for Mae West, one of Harold Lloyd's hand prosthetics, and Buster Keaton's personal movie camera.
Aside from a cast-signed Singin' in the Rain poster, the bigger ticket items (a Chaplin bowler, a Harpo Marx hat and wig) appear to be ones that did not sell at the earlier auctions.
All in all, they didn't save the best until last, but worth a look, and probably the only chance you will ever have of owning a potato sack designed by Travilla.
