Owning an authentic piece of Hollywood history from one of our favorite sci-fi franchises like "Star Wars" or "Star Trek" is the ultimate dream of any fan, even if the reality of laying down a winning bid during any major movie and TV memorabilia auction is a remote possibility.

Nevertheless, it costs nothing to fantasize (unless you’ve just won the lottery) about the chance to take home a coveted screen-used prop, costume, weapon, or accessory worn by some famous star in a favorite geeky film or television series.

Julien's Auctions and Turner Classic Movies just took the wrapper off their exclusive gathering of more than 1,400 enticing collectibles with deep connections to Hollywood past and present for the "Legends: Hollywood & Royalty" auction taking place live from  Sept. 6 to Sept. 8 in Beverly Hills, California.
