An auction of props from the HBO series 'Succession' has raised over $625,000, with items such as a Burberry tote bag and a set of pink index cards containing Roman Roy’s eulogy notes for his father’s funeral among the highest selling items.
The auction, held by Heritage Auctions in Dallas, included 236 lots and demonstrated the strong fan base of the show, with key moments from the series resonating most with bidders.
The Burberry tote bag, famously ridiculed by character Tom Wambsgans, sold for $18,750, while the index cards, representing a speech that was never given in the series, sold for $25,000.
Other notable items sold include a scorpion paperweight that sold for $10,000, a speech card from character Shiv Roy that went for $17,500, and a set of Roy family credit cards that fetched $10,000.
The auction comes as 'Succession' is expected to perform well at the upcoming Emmy Awards, following its recent wins at the Golden Globes.
