But this month they are holding a live auction at the BFI IMAX cinema in Waterloo - for all intents and purposes a Bonhams style auction.
there‘s some amazing stuff on offer, from Mr Spock’s costume from classic Star Trek, to costumes from Back To The Future, the Alien and Star Wars films.
And unlike the last couple of years of Bonhams auctions, there are is a good spread of quality items on offer to attract the interest of the dedicated Doctor Who fans out there.
As usual I have separated the items by Doctor era, and you can see the rest of the items here:
Here are just the lots relating to
the First Doctor
Dalek and Production-Used Shooting Script
A Dalek and production-used shooting script from Doctor Who: An Adventure in Space and Time. Nicknamed “Paul,” this creature was one of four used for the recreation of their first appearance on Doctor Who.
The Dalek is made of wood with metal skirt components and features interior seating for the operator and an array of wood, metal and resin dress-up components for the operable gun stick, plunger arm and the dome assembly. Lights in the dome, powered by a 12v battery, light up when the operator speaks. The monster is finished in grey, blue and faux-silver paint.
It is accompanied by a production-used shooting script and an “owner's workshop manual” detailing the use of the Dalek on the production. Displaying wear to the fender, skirt and paint finish from use and time spent in storage. The piece remains in very good condition. Dimensions: 160 cm x 85 cm x 160 cm (63” x 33 ½” x 63”)
As this item contains electronic components, every effort has been made to describe them accurately; however no guarantee or warranty is made as to functionality, lifespan or safety of those components. It is entirely incumbent on the new owner to satisfy themselves as to their safe use and maintenance.
