Star Trek auctions

Star Trek is a 40-year-plus franchise, the sum of more than 700 episodes and ten films. During the years of production, thousands and thousands of set pieces, props, wardrobe items, and other production materials have been acquired, as well as thousands of dedicated fans who will pay a hefty price to add parts of this historic series to their personal collections. In the past, Paramount chose to keep the production inventory, to be used again in future episodes, but after the cancellation of Enterprise, when there were no more Trek productions planned for the foreseeable future, Paramount decided to liquidate these assets in 2006, though previous auctions, liquidating some of the assets, were held. This precipitated several high-profile auctions of memorabilia, and a frenzy of starving collectors who fought over each item, with their pocketbooks as weapons.

 has been a San Fransisco based auction house, founded in 1865. The auction house ended its independent existence in 1999 when it was bought by Internet auctioneer. In 1993 the auction house was commissioned to sell off the estate of William Ware Theiss.

The William Ware Theiss Estate Auction
Held on 12 December 1993, this auction was the largest ever held in regard to garments Theiss had designed for Star Trek: The Original Series, most of which he apparently retained possession of after the series wrapped. Proceeds of the auction were to go, according to his will, to "Project Angel Food", a LA-based non-profit agency that served hundreds of meals on a daily basis to those challenged by HIV-AIDS, cancer and other diseases. Though most of the 144 lots, of which #805 - #918 were Star Trek related, have since then attained legendary status, some of the more remarkable were: Estimate: $3,000 - $5,000; Highest bid: $18,400 Estimate: $5,000 - $7,000; Highest bid: $8,625 Estimate: $2,000 - $4,000; Highest bid: $6,325 Estimate: $3,000 - $5,000; Highest bid: $10,925 Estimate: $2,000 - $4200; Highest bid: $9,200 Estimate: $1,000 $; Highest bid: $6,325 Estimate: $1,000 - $2,000; Highest bid: $4,887 Estimate: $700 - $900; Highest bid: $9,200 It is remarkable that some of the more titillating designs of Theiss, for which he has become renowned since, did not do well in this auction. For example lot #866, Diana Ewing's garments featured in, sold for a mere $173,00 (originally estimated at $300 - $500), whereas the garments worn by the Dohlman by France Nuyen in as lot #843, merely sold for $1,150, having been originally valued at $800- $1,200

Christie's
Christie's is a world-famous auction house, its headquarters based in New York City, with an outstanding reputation. It is currently the world's leading auction house by revenues. Over time, it has held some auctions in which Star Trek items were represented, the 2006 auction, the most remarkable.

Christie's East Entertainment Memorabilia Auction
Held on and  in New York City, it featured a small amount of Star Trek related lots (lots 726-730) sold in the second part of the auction.

Film and Television
Held on as Sale 8115 in New York City, this was a specialized Hollywood memorabilia auction, consisting of originally 290 listed lots, including several stemming from science fiction franchises, of which 222 were eventually auctioned off. The vast majority of these were commercial period memorabilia, though a portion also stemmed from production sources. Lots 57-71 were Star Trek related. Some lots were interesting as they contained among others collections of negatives and slides of behind-the-scenes imagery, that was usually discarded during the production of the series, but most of the items consisted of said commercial period memorabilia, though three stood out: Estimate: $12,000 - $15,000; Highest bid: $19,550 (including buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,500 - $2,000; Highest bid: $1,150 (including buyer's premium) Estimate: $15,000 - $20,000; Highest bid: $11,500 (including buyer's premium); The D7 class model not only misidentified, it was also misrepresented as a screen-used model, the actual one being in the possession of the. It was rather AMT's second master tooling model. This model came from the possession of Stephen Edward Poe, to whom the model was given by Gene Roddenberry after the production of The Original Series had wrapped. Though slated as such, it has never been used as an on-screen production asset.

40 Years of Star Trek: The Collection

 * Main article: 40 Years of Star Trek: The Collection

From October 3 through 5, 2006, Christie's held a very high-profile auction titled 40 Years of Star Trek: The Collection. The auction of 1,000 lots, all of which were Trek studio models, props, wardrobe, or other memorabilia, took in more than seven million dollars. As it does for most of its auctions, Christie's offered a very collectible print catalog, with photographs and descriptions for every item in the sale.

Film and Entertainment Memorabilia
On May 30, 2007, Christie's held another auction, this one titled Film and Entertainment Memorabilia, Sale 1854, in New York. The sale of 288 lots included a wide variety of items from film and entertainment history, including 26 lots (Lots 262-288) containing items from Star Trek, a few of which were re-listed from October 2006's auction. On the date of the sale, exchange rates were approximately as follows: US$1 = £0.51, SFr 1.23, ¥121.52, €0.75. The buyer's premium was changed between the 40 Years auction in October 2006 and May 2007. It was changed to 20% up to 500 thousand dollars, but none of the items in this sale went above that amount. Some selected items: Estimate: $500 - $700; Highest bid: $4,500; Price: $5,400 Estimate: $200 - $300; Highest bid: $750; Price: $900 Estimate: $2,500 - $3,500; Highest bid: $7,000; Price: $8,400 Estimate: $2,000 - $3,000; Highest bid: $5,500; Price: $6,600 (previously featured in the 2006 auction) Estimate: $8,000 - $12,000; Highest bid: $18,000; Price: $21,600

Profiles in History
Profiles in History is a Hollywood memorabilia seller that often includes several rare or unique Star Trek items in its auctions. Profiles is known for its very thorough research and, like Christie's, offers very professional catalogs of all its auctions. Printed copies can be purchased on-line, or PDF versions can be downloaded for free at their official website. The vast majority of their auctions are held under the title "Hollywood Memorabilia Auction", soon shortened to "Hollywood Auction", plus a follow number, as well as on occasion a sub title. Digressions occur when the auction in question is themed, such as an estate sale. Over the years Profile's Hollywood memorabilia auctions have tended to become quite large, typically held over a two-day period. In recent years, the number of lots offered up rarely drop below the one thousand mark.

On 27 October 2010, Syfy channel began airing a tie-in television series, Hollywood Treasure which showed "Profiles" employees tracking down, appraising and helping auction off film, television and pop culture memorabilia.

In recent years "Profiles" has come under increasing scrutiny by noted collector Alec Peters, whose blog, "The Star Trek Prop, Costume & Auction Blog" has since its inception rapidly become a focal point for collectors of Sci-Fi, and in particular Star Trek memorabilia. Main issues Peters had with "Profiles" concerned accuracy of description and or rather lack thereof, though "Profiles" in their Conditions of Sale (article 10) explicitly distances themselves from responsibility for accuracy of descriptions, which somewhat belies their reputation. A recent example was the offering of a Jem'Hadar battle cruiser model, supposedly used as production asset, in "Profiles"s Hollywood Auction #40 of 12 June 2010. The item was pulled from the auction just prior to the start of the auction without stating a formal explanation.

Peters went on to found his own action house, "Propworx, Inc." and has facilitated a major Star Trek auction himself in 2010.



Hollywood: A Collector's Ransom II

The proceeds from the sale of the Jefferies items went to the charitable organization "". All the handheld props came with certificates of authenticity from former set decorator John Dwyer. The auction featured in total 337 lots, the vast majority Star Trek related, constituting the very first specialized Star Trek auction, even though lots 307-335 originated from various other science fiction franchises. Of the Star Trek lots, most were The Original Series related with lots 258-306 related to various later Star Trek productions.

Julien's Auctions
Julien's Auctions is an auction house, located in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California, that was established in the early 2000s, and which has vied to become a competitor of Profiles in History, selling Hollywood memorabilia. In 2010 it held a specialized Star Trek auction.

The first part of the auction originated from the personal belongings, not production related material, of William Shatner, though Lots 1385-1406 were, mostly uniforms from the various Star Trek productions. However, the vast majority of the lots were non-production related items (which the exception of the gowns Majel Barrett Roddenberry wore as Lwaxana Troi, being Lot# 1564- Lot #1568), that constituted the second part of the auction, the estate of Majel and Gene Roddenberry. It was however the third part, Lots 1569-1593, that was the more interesting for collectors, as it, for the first time, officially offered up for auction items originating from the 2009 film. Bidders were charged a 25% buyer's premium plus an additional 3% when bidding on-line. Some results of the auction were : The following are the Star Trek 2009 movie items:

Hollywood Legends Auction
A large Hollywood memorabilia auction, in format akin to those held by "Profiles in History", it featured 369 lots originating from a myriad of Hollywood productions, auctioned off in four sessions over a two day period, to wit 5 and 6 April 2013. Only four lots, 117-120, were Star Trek related, though the last one, Lot 120, was quite the remarkable one, as it entailed the original phaser rifle as used in. Considered an iconic piece by the fan community, the rifle was sold at three times the high estimate. Aware of its status and in order to dispel any doubt about its provenance, Julien's had a documentary short commissioned, Julien's Auctions presents: Star Trek, featuring its creator, Reuben Klamer, that was posted on their website in the run-up to the auction.

Propworx, Inc.
Propworx, Inc. is an auction house, specializing in the sale of Hollywood science fiction memorabilia, run by Alec Peters, a noted American memorabilia collector of the genre. Peters founded his company in 2008 when he was given the exclusive rights to facilitate the sale of the production assets of the  franchise. The two auctions, held in 2009 were well received and Propworx was commissioned to facilitate the sales of other genre franchises such as ', ' and . Apart from these, Propworx, also handled the sale of the larger set pieces of the defunct Las Vegas Star Trek: The Experience exhibition in the "STAR TREK: THE EXPERIENCE Warehouse Sale" on 10 April 2010. This was a prelude to Propworx' first specialized Star Trek auction.



The official STAR TREK prop and costume auction
Held in Las Vegas on 8 August 2010, this auction featured 450 lots, given in consignment to Propworx from the personal collections of amongst others Doug Drexler, Rick Sternbach, Mike and Denise Okuda as well as some leftover items from the "Experience" sale. The auction was accompanied by a deluxe hardcover auction catalog embellished with interviews with the consignors and artwork by Drexler. Some items of note were: Estimate: $4,000-$6,000; Highest bid: $3,600 (with buyer's premium) Estimate: $8,000-$10,000; Highest bid: $8,000 (with buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,000-$2,000; Highest bid: $3,500 (with buyer's premium) Estimate: $400-$800; Highest bid: $8,400 (with buyer's premium, the most undervalued item of the auction) Estimate: $3,000-$4,000; Highest bid: $7,200 (with buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,000-$2,000; Highest bid: $4,800 (with buyer's premium)

STAR TREK auction
The second specialized Star Trek auction facilitated by Propworx, held on 4 June 2011. The auction followed the same pattern as the previous one, featuring lots given in consignment by many of the same people as before. The format however differed in that instead of holding a live auction, Internet auctioneer "Live Auctioneers" was subcontracted to auction off the lots on-line, providing potential buyers the possibility to submit bids from 12 May 2011 until closure on 4 June 2011. The volume offered in this auction was about half of the previous one, 257 lots, not surprisingly perhaps as the consignors were mostly the same. The majority of them were costumes, hand held props and smaller production material items. As with the earlier that year held Profile's "Hollywood Auction #44", it was remarkable that a larger portion than usual went unsold and that virtually all items sold within their estimates, indicating that for the time being the largest Star Trek collecting frenzy had passed. Lots of some note were: Estimate: $8,000-$12,000; Highest bid: $12,000 ($14,760 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,000-$2,000; Highest bid: $1,400 ($1,722 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $3,000-$4,000; Highest bid $4,000 (#4,920 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $800-$1,200; Highest bid: $1,600 ($1,968 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $300-$400; Highest bid: $1,400 ($1,722 with buyer's premium, the most undervalued lot)

 * Lot 104:Star Trek: The Next Generation Orbital Graphic Translight



STAR TREK auction III
The third specialized Star Trek auction facilitated by Propworx, held on 24 March 2012. As with the previous edition, it was an Internet only auction, again facilitated by "Live auctioneers". It was also the smallest one to date, featuring 91 lots, whereby it was noteworthy that the larger items such as the majority of the costumes and "set" pieces, were not production used items, but rather leftovers from "The Experience" exhibition. The ones that were production used, consisted mainly of props and production art. Virtually all lots sold within their estimates. Some items of note were: Estimate: $1,000-$2,000; Highest bid: $950 ($1,169 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,000-$2,000; Highest bid: $750 ($923 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,000-$2,000; Highest bid: $1,000 ($1,230 with buyer's premium) Estimate: $1,500-$2,000; Highest bid: $1,800 ($2,214 with buyer's premium)
