November marks the next Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction by Propstore, and has now become a tradition, the event features props from Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II, along with some promotional items.

Two of the stand-out pieces come from the 1989 movie, the bow section of the R.M.S. Titanic ghost ship, which was previously auctioned back in October 2021, and Bill Murray's screen-used Venkman coat, which was seen frequently through the film.


Please view the topic for detailed listing of the auction lots. The auction will take place between November 3rd and November 6th.

161. Screen-matched Titanic Model Miniature GHOSTBUSTERS II (1989)
A screen-matched model miniature of the R.M.S. Titanic from Ivan Reitman's supernatural comedy sequel Ghostbusters II. The Titanic and its ghostly passengers appeared at the New York docks after the evil slime under the streets of the city began to cause widespread chaos. The model matches the one seen on screen, identified by the holes and markings toward the front.

Built for the production by the artists at Industrial Light & Magic, the miniature is of the bow section of the ship and is predominantly resin sheet mounted over a wooden frame, with carved biscuit foam inside for shape and stability. The ship is intentionally distressed to look like it has been at the bottom of the Atlantic for decades, with a large gaping hole on the right side.

There are a couple of small lights and some clear perspex rods on the deck through which light would have emanated, giving a ghostly glow, although these are no longer functional.

The ship has some wear from age and use, and several of the resin panels and railings are no longer present on the sides of the ship. Dimensions: 155 cm x 53 cm x 140 cm (61" x 20 3/4" x 55")

Special shipping required; see special shipping notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Contains electronics; see electronics notice in the Buyer's Guide.
Estimate: £8,000 - £12,000

(Note: the photos of the Titanic miniature are identical to those of the 2014 listing.

There was only one Titanic built for GB2, and it's a huge bummer it's been picked over. I'm curious how many bits were actually sold, and how tough it would be to restore it all. Maybe buying back all of the sold parts? At least there should be auction/sales images of the sold parts, so it could be restored.

The Enriquez Terror Dog art is really, realllllllly cool. The maquettes are great examples, as well. I've already scratched my itch on those, or I would consider bidding. That script, though. :love:

I'm with ya on that one buddy. The "seller" still sells them. He has sold dozens. If its in fact the same model then why buy it to only tear parts off and resell your "scrap." I was just telling my girlfriend that I HATE this boom in prop displays that contain a piece of a prop in it. Some props or production items are fine to do it with. For example something like Walter Whites "Sky Blue" from Breaking Bad. A tone of it was made and it's a expensive buy. If you want to piece out some so other people have a chance at owning some? Great. With other things, it destroys the artistic value of the piece. I cringed at a display with a fingernail sized cut of a original 93' Jurassic Park map in it. Destroying something "iconic" is just gut wrenching.
