East Bristol Auctions, in conjunction with Bowington Management and Alzheimer’s Research UK, will hold a charity auction of over 600 lots, half of which are autographs, from the estate of Dave Prowse. The auction launches at 10am GMT on May 4th HERE.
Julian Owen, a long time friend and associate of Prowse, shared the following information on social media.
“It has been a huge honour to work with the Prowse family to help organize the auction of Dave Prowse’s personal collection of film, TV, Convention and career memorabilia.
For the last 2 months I’ve been searching through boxes, cupboards, filing cabinets and sheds sifting through over 50 years of Dave’s career. It’s been fascinating unearthing treasures from the past as well as reliving memories of working with Dave.
There are over 300 fantastic autographs in this auction, the majority of them are Star Wars related. There are some real gems that only Dave Prowse could have obtained in person.
The Green Cross Droid and Suit are also included in this auction, items which helped to save thousand of kids lives through the Green Cross road safety campaign.
Also one lucky winner will finally see for real the lines that Dave Prowse was given for that iconic reveal in The Empire Strikes Back as his original pages of script are on offer.
A significant portion of funds raised from this auction will be donated to Alzheimer’s Research UK. A cause that is close to the hearts of the Prowse family.”
The items can be viewed now by clicking HERE and bidding will begin on May 4th.
