A rare collection of Wonder Woman and Batman memorabilia are set to hit the “Channel Surfing” auction block next month in Los Angeles, California.
Julien’s “Channel Surfing” announced in a press release that the collection features iconic memorabilia from the past 70 years, including Lynda Carter’s Wonder Woman costume and Batman’s vest.
Aside from Wonder Woman’s body suit, the collection also includes Carter’s emblematic accessories and props – her tiara headpiece and earrings, the original “Lasso of Truth” prop, and original knee-high uniform boots.
The Batman collection, on the other hand, will include the original Bat-O-Rang prop used by Burt Ward as Robin aka Dick Grayson and the original green Riddler question mark suit jacket and vest worn by Frank Gorshin as The Riddler in the pilot episode and feature film version of the “Batman” television series.
Aside from the aforementioned, the auction is also set to feature memorabilia from the talk show “Late Night with David Letterman,” sketch comedy variety show “Saturday Night Live,” American sitcom “All in the Family,” and police procedural and legal drama series “Law & Order.”
The auction also comes with a special limited-time pop-up that features a curated installation gallery of unforgettable moments and select artifacts from the beloved shows as Julien partners with RiseNY, a popular immersive attraction in the heart of Midtown.
