10 pieces of Hollywood memorabilia at auction

PC
WASHINGTON -Lifeboat from Titanic
Because it’s nearly 28 feet long, good luck finding somewhere to display your $40-60,000 lifeboat. That said, it is the very one used to rescue Rose.

Frodo from Lord of the Rings
Profiles in History sold Orlando Bloom’s Legolas bow for $372,000 in 2012, so don’t be surprised if this goes for far higher than its estimated $50,000 price tag.

Wilson from Cast Away
Wil-soooooooooon, Wiiiiilllllllll-sooooooonnnnnn, Price: $15,000.

Blue Warrior costume from Tron
Despite the fact that the headpiece is just an old hockey helmet, this piece of your childhood could sell for $20,000.

Alien egg from Aliens
It actually opens (making it more functional than Dean’s switchblade and at only $12,000, a better bargain), giving you the option of recreating scenes from both the Alien films and your nightmares.

Jack sled from The Nightmare
This is one of only two screen-used sleds from Tim Burton’s popular 1993 film. Over three feet long and a foot high, it’s a little unsettling and very beautiful, just like the film.
Batman suit from Batman Returns
As the auction house notes, costume designer Bob Ringwood practically invented the modern cinematic superhero costume with this molded latex suit: “Batman represented the first time ever that a superhero costume was envisioned as more than just a fancy set of tights.” Worth every penny of the $60,000.

Han Solo blaster from Star Wars
Used in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, this “non-firing” blaster (a detail we love that the auction house added) is projected to pull in up to $300,000. That’s a tad salty, but in the words of Han Solo: “Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid.”

Indy whip from Indiana Jones
River Phoenix played “Young Indy” in the final original installment of the Indiana Jones franchise. This is the whip he used in his scenes, expected to go for between $12,000-$15,000.

Ricks of Casablanca fame’s Chair
For $3,000-$5,000, this handsome bamboo and wicker chair (also used in Paramount’s White Christmas and Funny Face) can be yours. Piano, melancholy and booze not included.
