Ep 492: The Greg Jein Collection

This week the Regular Joes take a  look at the Greg Jein collection of Sci Fi movie and TV props, production models, costumes and other memorabilia which Heritage Auctions will be putting on the block starting October 14. To call this auction unprecedented is a gross understatement. The trove of objects the late special effects wizard amassed in his life time is simply astounding. The scope and quality of items is almost beyond belief.  The Regular Joes guide through this once in a lifetime offering is their own Brian Mix, a friend of Mr. Jein and first hand witness to the extraordinary assemblage of treasures accumulated in and around the movie business. From, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension, to his final work in Mulan, Mr. Jein’s onscreen contributions are dwarfed only by his more private side as a collector. In this episode we get rare insights into both. If you have any interest in collecting sci fi props, this will be the Auction folks will be talking about for decades to come. Thanks for Listening!
