Succession coffee mugs and dresses from The Crown: hit TV shows sell off prized props

Production companies are putting entire sets up for auction, with an array of onscreen memorabilia up for grabs

Meanwhile, a tutu worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in the opening credits of Sex and The City and originally found by the show’s costume designer Patricia Field in a “five-dollar bin at a midtown fashion showroom” is estimated to fetch over £10,000 in an online auction next week. “Only people with Succession money can participate at this point,” reads one comment on a Reddit forum flagging that bids for a stunt foam can of cranberry sauce used by Logan Roy to strike his grandson currently stand at over £260. One of the very specific pleasures of Succession was its genius for fictional media coverage – the bogus, but believable stories crawling across the screen of ATN, Waystar Royco’s Fox News like channel, or the double-page spread in the New York Times during the Swede’s takeover (and yes, I did press pause to scrutinise every legible word of that one).
