The sale also established a new public sale document for a screen-used “Star Wars” prop, according to the public sale organizer, capturing past their $3.75 million July public sale sale of Skywalker’s lightsaber and severed hand-effects rig from “The Empire Strikes Back.”
Heritage’s Thursday public sale also featured materials from “Star Wars” Episodes I through IX and extra movies and TV exhibits.
