The Last Leica M3 Camera

Introduced in 1954, over 225,000 Leica M3s were built over the following 12 years. This one just happens to be the last. Serial no. 1164865 was the final M3 to come off the line when production ended in 1966. Unlike virtually all of its predecessors, it was never used. It arrives in its original box, with the special order letter from the original owner, the original paper receipt from Leica London, and a letter from Leica stating that it is indeed the last M3 manufactured, making it nearly as desirable as the first M3, which sold at auction in 2012 for $1.15 Million.

Steve McQueen's Rolex Submariner Watch

It's not the first McQueen-owned timepiece to come up for auction, but it might be the best. This reference 5513 Rolex Submariner dates to 1964 and was gifted to McQueen's longtime friend and stuntman Loren Janes by McQueen. The watch was thought to be destroyed in a 2016 fire that engulfed Janes' home, but was recovered from the rubble and restored by Rolex U.S.A. Still bearing the inscription "TO LOREN, THE BEST DAMN STUNTMAN IN THE WORLD. STEVE", it will be auctioned off in New York on October 25 and arrives with an additional, period correct ref. 5513 dial and hand set, a letter signed by Loren Janes attesting to its provenance, a second letter from Rolex, and a copy of Steve McQueen: A Life in Pictures, which includes photos of the watch on the wrist of the legendary actor.

Screen-shot Death Star Section

It's easy to forget now, but the original Star Wars was shot using manual effects, not CG. Sadly, no one knew the importance of what they were doing at the time, and so few props remain. This section of the Death Star is one of them. Rescued from the trash heap by an ex-ILM employee, it measures 23.75" X 11.75" and exhibits the fine detail that made the film's final act so believable. It's been authenticated by two independent ILM employees and comes in a custom-made display case with a black wood base, removable acrylic top, and LED lighting.

GoldenEye 1965 Aston Martin DB5

No car is more synonymous with James Bond than the DB5, having appeared in seven 007 films. This particular 1965 model had a starring role in the opening scene of GoldenEye. At one point the most valuable piece of Bond memorabilia ever sold, we'd highly recommend against pitting it versus a Ferrari F355 in the hills above Monaco, but the center console does still work as a serving area for drinks on more relaxed outings.

Beethoven Emperor Concerto Manuscript

The fifth and final piano concerto composed by Ludwig van Beethoven, the "Emperor" concerto is also the most frequently performed. Which makes this Autograph Manuscript all the more important. These two pages, marked by Beethoven himself, provide sketches for the second theme of the first movement and ideas for the second and third movements, respectively. Created in Vienna in 1809, they're just the fourth such leaves to be offered in the past 40 years, making them a rare and highly desirable piece of musical memorabilia.

Terminator 2 Harley-Davidson Motorcycle

Arnold Schwarzenegger's T-800, navigating a spillway in an attempt to rescue young John Connor from a semi piloted by the T-1000. It's one of the most iconic scenes in one of the most celebrated sci-fi movies of its time. Now you can own a piece. This 1991 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy motorcycle was used during the filming of Terminator 2: Judgement Day, most likely with Arnold behind the wheel. Acquired directly from the production company, it has a few scrapes and dings, only 392 miles on the odometer, and a provenance most bikes can only dream of.

Kurt Cobain's Smashed Aria Pro II Guitar

In 1990, no one knew what Nirvana would become. Only 1,500 people were at the Motorsports International Garage Show in Seattle on September 22 to see Kurt Cobain smash this Aria Pro II Cardinal Series Guitar. One of Cobain's favorites on that summer's tour, it was procured by one of the night's security workers, who gave Cobain the pickups (at his request), leaving the natural wood finish husk you see here. "Nirvana" is carved into what remains of the neck, and the former instrument is accompanied by a copy of Nirvana Live 1994, which has a photo of Kurt preparing to destroy the guitar on the cover.

Bob Dylan's 1965 Fender Telecaster

Used to record iconic albums like Blonde on Blonde, The Basement Tapes, and Music from Big Pink, this 1965 Fender Telecaster's history runs deep. Bob Dylan used it to "go electric" while on tour in 1966 and legends like Eric Clapton, George Harrison, and Levon Helm all took turns before the Fender passed into the hands of The Band's Robbie Robertson. The instrument was a vital part of Robertson's guitar stable, and he stripped its original black finish to expose its bare wood origins. It arrives at auction with many original components intact or upgraded over time as a part of the Music Icons event at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York.

Han Solo's Blaster

While not as instantly recognizable as a lightsaber, Han Solo's Blaster is no less iconic. Now you have a chance to own it. Custom built specifically for Return of the Jedi, this original prop was based on a Mauser C96 Broomhandle and modified with additional parts and cast resin pieces. One of three "non-firing" versions used in production, this BlasTech DL-44 was presented post-filming to Art Director James L. Schoppe, who has kept it in his memorabilia archive for the last 35 years. It will be auctioned off at the Hollywood Legends event scheduled for June 23 at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

Hotel Chelsea Doors

Known for a long list of famous residents that includes Hendrix, Kubrick, and Warhol, the Hotel Chelsea in New York is one of the most iconic locations in the city. During the current renovation, a homeless man came across these discarded wooden doors while searching for shelter. Guernsey's auction house is selling 55 of the original doors that they claim can be traced back to some of the icons who once lived behind them. And the man who found the doors, no longer homeless, as cosigner has requested that a portion of the auction proceeds to a charity that helps feed the hungry in New York.

Eiffel Tower Diamond Light

Paris is known as the City of Lights. Every night, for the first five minutes of every hour, one light — created by 20,000 bulbs — shines brighter than all the rest. You can own a piece of this iconic structure with an Eiffel Tower Diamond Light. These authentic bulbs have been retired from use and set on a base of flexible mild steel, similar to the puddle iron used to build the Tower itself. The base is painted Venice Red to match the color of the Tower from 1889 until 1892 and is numbered to mark its limited nature as one of 450 examples.

Original 1968 Ford Mustang Bullitt

Debuting (again) alongside the new Mustang Bullitt is the car that inspired it. One of just two fastbacks built for use during filming, this Original 1968 Ford Mustang Bullitt was the "hero" car, sold to a private buyer after filming while its stunt-weary duplicate went to a salvage yard. Thought to be lost, it has belonged to the same family since 1974, is incredibly well-preserved, and will appear at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, just in time for the film's 50th anniversary.

Luke Skywalker's Lightsaber

One of three lightsabers built for the Sarlacc Pit sequence in Return of the Jedi, Luke Skywalker's Lightsaber is a highly rare piece of Star Wars history. This particular prop is made from metal, brass, and rubber, and was used for several close-up shots of R2D2. It's not the one that got fired up in the air — that one was plastic, to keep a metal projectile away from Han, Chewy, and the rest of the crew — nor is it the "hero" version that you see in Luke's hand afterward. As a result, this lightsaber has elements of both the other props and has a chipped edge along the top rim that's also visible in the film, lending it an extra bit of authenticity.

Oris Source of Life Limited Edition Watch

Its 43.5mm stainless steel case is enhanced by a gray tungsten bezel insert and a backplate embossed with a map of the Rhine. It's finished with either a stainless steel metal bracelet or gray rubber strap, and is limited to just 2,343 pieces to reflect the height above sea level of Lai da Tuma, the source of the Rhine.

Space-Worn Omega Speedmaster

The Speedmaster is nicknamed the Moon Watch for its place on the wrists of the astronauts of the Apollo program. This Space-Worn Omega Speedmaster earned its moniker more directly than most, on the arm of cosmonaut Gennady Padalka. Padalka holds the record for most cumulative days spent in space aboard the International Space Station. The watch has made a total of 2 thousand orbits, taken part in a nearly 6-hour EVA, and has likely been in space longer than any other timepiece. It's mounted on a black Velcro wristband, while the original metal bracelet is included, along with the original box, manual, and two letters of authenticity signed by Padalka, one typed and one handwritten.

Baby Driver Subaru WRX

This 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX Limited isn't your average decade-old ride. Used as a stunt car in Edgar Wright's excellent Baby Driver, it's practically its own character. It underwent some major modifications prior to filming — it was converted to rear wheel drive, saw its rear differentials upgrades, and received a 2004 STi turbocharged engine prior to tuning, which was handled by Doug Wilkes at DBW Motorsport. In addition to starring in the film, it was also featured in the music video for "Chase Me", and could be spotted near the red carpet at the film's premiere. Listed in "good" condition, it's the rare piece of movie memorabilia that's actually functional.

O.J. Simpson's Ford Bronco

Okay, so it wasn't really O.J.'s Bronco — it was his buddy A.C. Cowlings', who famously drove the Juice during the legendary low-speed chase in 1994. Yet most everyone would agree it's best known as O.J. Simpson's Ford Bronco. Purchased from Cowlings by O.J.'s former sports agent Mike Gilbert, the white 1993 model is now on display at the Alcatraz East Crime Museum in Pigeon Forge, TN, and available for the right price. TMZ reports that Gilbert is looking for a sizable amount for the vehicle, and is willing to sell to anyone... assuming your name isn't Orenthal James Simpson.

Dharma Initiative Beer

It's been over seven years since we saw Jack's eyes close in the same way they opened at the beginning of Lost in 2004. The series about the survivors of Oceanic Airlines Flight 815 and the mysterious island they inhabited still holds a place in the minds of those who watched it. These three cans of Dharma Initiative Beer are a perfect way to pay tribute to the show in your own bar. Curiously, two of the cans feature heavy soiling and distress, while the third is opened, slightly crushed, and yet in far better condition, suggesting Sawyer (or one of the other characters, but let's be honest, it was probably him) may have enjoyed it during filming.

1953 Disneyland Presentation Map

Like many grand ideas, Disneyland needed outside funding to get started. In the '50s, however, you couldn't just render your idea and post it on a website. You needed to make your pitch artwork by hand. Which is exactly what Walt Disney and artist Herb Ryman did, inking a piece of vellum with a vision of what would become The Happiest Place On Earth. Vellum doesn't travel well, however, so they transferred and then hand-colored the drawing onto the piece you see here. This 1953 Disneyland Presentation Map was carried by Roy Disney to New York and used in his pitch that secured the funding for the park. It's visible in the background of several photographs of Walt from that era and was eventually given to his friend Grenade Curran, who kept it out of public view for the last sixty years. It has since re-emerged and will be auctioned off by Van Eaton Galleries on June 25th.

1984

Don't listen to the press — they don't know how many books you've read. While George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four is an undisputed literary classic, and also served as the basis for the greatest television ad of all-time, its themes of public manipulation and government surveillance seem especially poignant in recent days. Despite being first released in 1949, it's currently the best-selling book on Amazon, and its publisher just ordered another 75,000 copies. These first-editions are likely to become even more collectible as the years go on, but if they're a little more than you typically spend on dead trees, we'd recommend the recent Penguin Modern Classics edition, with a cover design from David Pearson that's among the best we've ever seen.
