“This year, Propstore’s Los Angeles Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction contains many never seen before treasures from film and television content, including the screen-matched Evil Clown who dragged Robbie under the bed in Poltergeist
. We’ll also be reuniting Oliver Robins, who played Robbie, with the doll at our VIP Auction Preview at the Petersen Automotive Museum on June 24th.“
Oliver Robins added: “
It will be a surreal and wondrous moment to stand before the Clown Doll. Soon to be reunited with each other after 40 years. It’s time to make peace with the tormentor of my childhood and make amends with this old foe.“Would you like to participate in Propstore’s auction, and which item(s) would you want to own?
