Star Trek Memorabilia Auction

Khannie

There's an article in todays metro (page 3....oooh errr!) about a huge ST memorabilia auction that's going to take place in Christies in October.

"Never has a collection of this scope and depth come to the auction market - nor will it ever again"

It's a pain in the bottom for me to scan stuff, but if there's enough interest I might get my finger out.

I saw some of the suff they have up for it when I was at Comic-Con, really nice gear spanning pretty much all the eras of Trek. Prices to match though.

I think I have some photos at home, I'll take a look tonight. Some of the stuff I remember being there were uniforms, an unpainted model Romulan Warbird from Next-Gen, phasers and two bottles of Chateau Picard "vintage" winebottles.

Did ya catch the price?

No prices have been set as of yet. But the Chateau Picard was only mentioned in a deleted scene from Star Trek: Nemesis.

Are the last two episodes of the last series of TNG not set on the Picard vineyard? I'm pretty sure there are a good few mentions of it throughout the series though.

Yeah, the Picard vineyards are an ongoing thing, I think. I remember Picards brother popping up at one point too...in a vineyard...

you can preview some of the stuff at

http://www.christies.com/special_sites/startrek/

and clicking on the galaxy of highlights link which gives you examples of some of the stuff in the catalogue and guide prices

seriously thinking of bidding for one or two things particularly:

the caretakers array used in the voyager pilot guide: $2-3000

brent spiners uniform in nemesis guide: $2-3000

the enterprise b model thats been used as a few different ships in 3 films and 4 episodes of TNG guide: $3-5000 (a bit out of my price range so have been trying to get 1 or 2 fellow nerds to add to the kitty to bid on this one)
