Being offered to the public for the first time, Propstore has joined forces with Sam Neill to auction off select items from Neill’s personal Jurassic Park and Jurassic World collection.
Proceeds from the sale of the one-of-a-kind items will benefit UNICEF UK.
Neill said in a statement, “My Jurassic Park boots, along with my Jurassic World hat, scarf, shirt, and jacket are up for auction at Propstore’s Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction on 28th June. These boots were made for kicking dinosaurs, in the words of the old song. And indeed they did, in the first Jurassic Park. I ran for miles in them. These items are utterly unique, possibly even iconic if you’re a fan. Most importantly, the full proceeds will go towards helping support refugee children through the vital and incredible work of UNICEF UK.”
Other auction highlights include…
- JURASSIC PARK (1993) Sam Neill Collection: Dr. Alan Grant’s (Sam Neill) Boots, est. $6,000 – $12,000
- JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION (2022) Sam Neill Collection: Dr. Alan Grant’s (Sam Neill) Shirt, est. $4,000 – $8,000
