An Auction to Get Lost at
I heard several months back that ABC had planned on auctioning off a good number of the props from Lost now that the curtain has officially closed, but I wasn’t quite sure when and where that was taking place — it could have been on an remote island for all I knew. Turns out it’ll be in Santa Monica — not quite an island with polar bears, though I was hoping they’d at least have some bears available to auction off. In fact, I would have settled for a brown bear that was spray painted white. Needless to say, they have some pretty cool props to auction off, including but not limited to the baby-blue DHARMA Van, Locke’s trusty wheelchair, a classic Apple computer, and Hurley’s red Camaro.
The address they have listed is as follows:
Barker Hangar
3021 Airport Ave.
Santa Monica, CA 90405
The event will run from August 21st through 22nd, starting at 1:00 PM and should span 1,000 lots with props ranging from season one through six accordingly. If you’re curious, you can order a catalog of the items to be sold at auction via the official auction website for a hefty $55. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
