If this were a party it would put the Oscars to shame, but, it's not, it's a warehouse in Newberry Park and these movers and shakers are neither moving nor shaking.

 

“Their heads of course are all made of wax,” which makes sense when you realize these all former headliners at the Hollywood Wax Museum. Over the years, as the museum fills up with new waxy celebrities. The old stars start piling up in storage.

 

I want to share who's standing behind me of course, Micheal Jordan, Steven Seagal, Elizabeth Taylor, it goes on and on.But their storage room doesn't go on and on, so the folks at the wax museum are more or less holding a celebrity auction, only this time, you get to keep the celebrities, some of whom go back decades; just take a look at Kareem Abdul-Jabber's short shorts for evidence.

 

-The Hollywood Wax Museum opened in 1965 on Hollywood Boulevard, so a couple of the figures like Muhammad Ali,and Sammy Davis Jr. were made by high sky chief, one of our original sculptors in the 60s.

 

-More than 200 of these wax figures are hitting the auction block, stars like Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt and John Travolta. These are guys who get 20 million dollars for film, and they could be yours for just a fraction of that. What's up, Tom?

 

-They are gonna start at about a thousand dollars for an individual, as a group they'll probably start at about 8,000 dollars.

 

Yep, unlike Yoko Ono , the auctioneers are not going to break up the Beatles, Ben Hoss&Little Joe also come as a match set. And here is the beauty of it, these celebrities don't need to be pampered.

 

-They're quite adorable ,you know , in fairly heated condition as well as cold conditions, dusting them making sure that they don't get nicked or cracked  are the main ways to take care of them.

 

With that kind of ease of use, you too can be a Hollywood handler, and be able to wax nostalgic from the comfort of your own home
