A collection of personal effects from Brando’s estate fetched $2,378,300 at a June 30, 2005 auction at Christie’s New York. His annotated script from The Godfather was bought for a world record $312,800. “Godfather” memorabilia were the most sought-after items at the 6.5-hour auction, which attracted over 500 spectators and bidders and multiple telephone bids. Brando’s annotated film script originally was figured to sell at between $10,000 and $15,000, but brought more than 20 times the high end of the pre-auction estimate. The previous record for a film script bought at auction was $244,500 for Clark Gable’s Gone with the Wind script, which was auctioned at Christie’s New York in 1996.
