The enduring legacy of Stan Lee, the creator, writer, editor and publisher behind some of the most iconic Marvel Comics characters, including Spider-Man, Iron Man, the Incredible Hulk, Black Panther, and Fantastic Four among others, continues to shape Hollywood’s film landscape and pop culture with the box office and critically acclaimed Marvel Cinematic Universe with 2019’s Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame, the final installment of the Infinity Saga that is tracking to become the highest grossing film of all time, as well as 2018’s Academy Award-winning animated feature film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse . Hollywood Legends will feature a collection of 25 important items related to the titan including original sketches, artwork, original comic books signed by Lee, photographs and more. Highlights include a Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #1 (Marvel Comics Group, August 2017) with original sketch by Stan Lee and signed in black marker (estimate: $600-$800); Captain Marvel #1 (Marvel Comics Group, May 1968) signed on the cover by Lee (estimate: $1,000-$2,000); a copy of The Amazing Spider-Man #1 Sketch Edition (Marvel Comics Group, June 2014) signed by Stan Lee, John Romita, and Todd McFarlane; signed and sketch by Humberto Ramos; signed and colored by Edgar Delgado and Victor Olazaba (estimate: $1,000-$2,000); an original and signed sketch of Lee’s most iconic creation, Spider-Man (estimate: $800-$1,200) and more.

The sweeping Golden Age of Hollywood epic, Gone with the Wind (MGM, 1939), remains the reigning highest-grossing movie of all time. Numerous original production documents, negatives and contact sheets from the film starring Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable, will be offered including never before seen photographs taken by studio photographer Fred Parrish. The over 800 images feature behind-the-scenes and candid shots of the film production with a variety showing the actors in costume with their family, friends or crew next to them wearing 1939-era clothing along with the film producer David O. Selznick, director Victor Fleming, and technicians, crew and extras on the set (estimate: $6,000-$8,000). The fascinating images almost tell a different story than the Civil War romance epic seen on the screen. In addition, Parrish’s camera used to take these extraordinary photographs will be offered for sale (estimate: $20,000-$25,000). Parrish had invented this special camera - a turn of the century-era Agfa-brand large format 8x10 “accordian fold out” wooden box camera - which allowed him to take hundreds of shots as the camera would allow 35mm film to be used to take individual still shots. The camera was on display at the Atlanta Historical Society before it was returned to Bill Tompkin, a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer archivist and business partner to Parrish, who then gifted it to the current owner. Other Gone with the Wind pieces on offer include the circa 1860s antique used bedpost seen in Scarlett O’Hara’s (played by Vivien Leigh) Atlanta bedroom (estimate: $10,000-$20,000); seats from the Loew’s Grand Theatre in Atlanta which hosted the world premiere of the film on December 15, 1939 and Walter Plunkett’s signed employment agreement for his work as costume researcher and designer for the film.

Another set of never before seen negatives and photographs comes from the other greatest film of all time, The Wizard of Oz, also directed by Victor Fleming. A group of black and white negatives taken on the 1939 set depicting crew members standing by the grand entrance to the Royal Palace of Oz, a flying monkey smashing through a window as well as original black and white photographs featuring the four main stars Judy Garland as “Dorothy,” Bert Lahr as “The Cowardly Lion,” Ray Bolger as “The Scarecrow,” and Jack Hale as “The Tin Man” will delight and add tremendous value to any serious Hollywood memorabilia curator’s collection.

The King of Cool, Steve McQueen’s movie star aura and rebel persona is forever immortalized with the many Indian Motorcycles that he owned, raced and collected. It is by no coincidence that McQueen’s association with and adulation of Indian Motorcycles resulted in the purchase of this Silver King bicycle which represented a piece of early bicycle/motorcycle history for his personal collection. This circa 1890s black bicycle with a hand-painted plaque that reads “Steve McQueen” on both sides was partially restored by McQueen in the 1970s and designed by Hendee & Nelson Manufacturing Company which was the predecessor to what became The Indian Motorcycle Company (estimate: $20,000-$50,000).
