Iconic Waxworks Up For Sale In Hollywood Auction
Fans of Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, THE Beatles and Cher can now get their hands on their own life-sized model of the stars - wax representations of the icons are going up for auction next month (May09).
Executives at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Los Angeles are selling off the imitations along with nearly 200 other waxworks of celebrities including actors Stevie Wonder, Will Smith and Charlie Chaplin, sporting greats Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, and former U.S. presidents Bill Clinton and George Washington.
A portion of the profits from the Profiles in History sale will be used to help preserve Hollywood's Walk of Fame.
The auction, the first in the wax museum's 44-year history, is due to take place on 1 May (09).
