Lady Gaga dressOther featured items in the sale also include a green mini skirt worn by Jennifer Aniston, a pair of rhinestone dangling earrings owned and worn by Marilyn Monroe (Estimate $ 1,000-2,000) and the on screen costume worn by Sandra Bullock in her Oscar winning role in The Blindside.

Following the great success of AuctionMyStuff’s “Marlene Dietrich: The World’s Most Glamorous Grandmother” sale in March of this year which auctioned 250+ iconic personal items belonging to the actress, the upcoming memorabilia sale will feature a diverse catalogue of property from a private collector called Tim Fredman.
Marilyn jeansTim has been collecting iconic pieces of pop and film memorabilia for over 50 years. As a boy growing up in Surrey, England, Tim was an avid autograph hunter, a hobby helped partly by his family’s celebrity ties.
His grandmother knew variety artist Sophie Tucker whom he regarded as a second grandmother. And his father helped finance the 1956 film Reach for the Sky, based on Douglas Bader's biography. As a result, Tim soon had the hottest autograph book in town.
Fredman eventually became a barrister in London but his fascination with history, which he studied at Oxford, inspired him to continue his fascination for what is now known as celebrity memorabilia.
Marilyn earringsOther offerings in the sale include a red corduroy "McAll" shirt belonging to James Dean (Estimate $ 3,000-5,000), a photograph from Les Miserables signed by Anne Hathaway (Estimate $ 200-300), a signed Michael Phelps photograph (Estimate $ 100-200), and signed LP records from the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Queen, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Marlene Dietrich and many more.
AuctionMyStuff founder Patrick van der Vorst said of the sale, “Our last memorabilia auction focused on items from the estate of actress Marlene Dietrich and achieved phenomenal results. In this sale, we are bringing a wider selection of top quality memorabilia from a range of stars from the film, music and sporting world. We are excited to be able to offer such an impressive variety of items and with its variety of value offerings; this sale affords an excellent opportunity for a new collector as well as the seasoned connoisseur”.
