I am a MASSIVE Kevin Smith fan and I am really excited about this. I am already a big fan of Propworx and now they are having another one of their Prop and Costume Auctions that will feature stuff from Kevin Smith’s worlds.
And this is the best part. This is SO Kevin Smith. The Auction is actually called Kevin Smith Sells Out: The Official Askewniverse Garage Sale
Kevin Smith, writer/director of such films as Clerks, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and the upcoming Red State is partnering with Propworx, Hollywood’s premier studio auction house to announce Kevin Smith Sells Out: The Official Askewniverse Garage Sale. The auction will commence on April 10, 2011 at 10:00am at the Pasadena Convention Center and will feature hundreds of props, costumes, comic art, and set pieces from Kevin’s catalog of films and projects. Kevin will also podcast live from the event, telling behind the scenes stories about the items.
Most notable among the lots are the Bartleby’s Angel Wings and Torso Armor from Dogma. Worn by actor Ben Affleck during the final battle, the poseable, bloody angel wings measure 80” x 60”. Also on the auction block are amazing pieces of original comic art, including artwork from Green Arrow, Daredevil: The Man Without Fear, Bluntman & Chronic, Jay and Silent Bob, and Clerks.
I guarantee you that Kevin Smith came up with that title himself.
This is some impressive stuff, and if I had the expendable income, you guys would not stand a chance to get those Bartleby Wings. They would become a part of my bed headboard and I’d be wearing them on my deathbed.
But there are some pretty damned cool stuff in there that you could not otherwise EVER get your hands on.
Propworx is my one degree of separation with Mr Smith and a great way to nab those impossible to buy authentic collectibles.
Lastly, as with every Propworx event, you can get the catalogue – and don’t let those words decieve you. These hardcover full colour glossy page books are collector peices themselves and I have the Iron Man, Star Trek, and two Stargate books. They are incredible. I can’t wait to get my hands on this one.
So go get one at Propworx and throw your bid down on event day (you can bid online) to take home a peice of Kevin Smith history!!
Snootchie Bootchies!!
