Even in good economic times, few of us have the kind of money required to throw around at movie prop auctions -- but oh, how sweet it is to look at them and wish.
A pretty amazing one is hitting the auction block this spring. Forrest J. Ackerman's horror collection is being sold, and if you know Ackerman at all, you realize he had some amazing stuff. Among the things going up for auction are Bela Lugosi's Dracula ring (pictured above), Lugosi's robe from The Raven, his cape from stage productions of Dracula, and a first edition of the Bram Stoker novel, signed by Stoker, Lugosi, and a slew of other famous people. Fritz Lang's monocle, which he wore during Metropolis filming, is the odd prop out right now, but no less cool. It's rather heartbreaking to see it scattered to the four winds though, isn't it?...
