Blockbuster Auction Featuring Items from AMC’s ‘The Walking Dead’ Opens Today

Written by John Edward Betancourt

Something we don’t think about all that often when a television show goes off the air, is what happens to all the props and costumes and everything else that was created for the show. Because that stuff has to go somewhere, and something has to be done with it. In some cases, it might go home with a cast member, and they most definitely earned keeping their treasured memory from a powerful experience. But more often than not, we just don’t know where it goes… but the interconnectivity of the world is starting to change that. 
​
Because you’ve likely seen often this year, mentions of auctions for items from hit shows. Simply because that’s precisely what happens to a lot of these props, they’re auctioned away in private events and that too is changing. For these online mentions allow for fans to jump into the fray and bid on a prop that means to the world of them and now, fans of The Walking Dead can put in their bid for props from this iconic horror series. For earlier today, AMC announced that it has partnered with Goldin to hold an auction for said props, one that is underway right now. So, with that in mind… here is a little more information regarding this auction, with a sample list and sample images of what you can bid upon from this beloved series, courtesy of AMC and Goldin.

‘AMC Networks in partnership with Goldin, the leading marketplace for collectibles and memorabilia, announced today that it will auction coveted and one-of-a-kind items from its cultural touchstone television series, The Walking Dead. The exclusive, blockbuster auction features more than 100 iconic items that have been centerpieces of some of the most beloved episodes of the show over the years.
 
The collection goes on sale today, September 27, just ahead of the broadcast of the final episodes of the smash hit post-apocalyptic series, Sundays at 9/8c on AMC and AMC+. Over the course of its 11-season run, The Walking Dead has earned praise from fans and critics alike.

Select marquee items available for bidding include:

• Daryl Dixon's Classified Moto Production-Used Motorcycle: The iconic vehicle that Daryl Dixon rides through four seasons of the series. This custom motorcycle built by Classified Moto comes from a Honda CB750 Nighthawk. It was last seen in Season 8 during the Saviors’ attack on Hilltop.
• Negan’s Production Used “Lucille” Baseball Bat: “Lucille” is a wooden baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire that accompanied Negan’s introduction in the Season 6 episode, "Last Day on Earth."
