UPDATED: “Harry Potter” Film Props Up for Auction in Surrey This Month

Film props from the Harry Potter series are among those going up for auction later this month at an auction house in Surrey, according to SurreyLive. Ewbank’s will be auctioning off film and music memorabilia at auctions on May 30, and Harry Potter fans might be interested in bidding!

SurreyLive writes that the Harry Potter props were consigned by a former transportation driver for the films. From the Ewbank’s listing online, a piece of sheet music from the first film will be up for auction.

UPDATE (May 23):

The website for Ewbank’s has been updated! As noted by an article on Mental Floss, there have been a number of new items of Harry Potter memorabilia added to the auction listing for May 30.

The Gryffindor robes that had been missing from the website have returned, valued between £500 and £800.

Also up for auction is a pair of eyeglasses that Daniel Radcliffe wore as Harry Potter in the first film. Ewbank’s provided a description of the iconic round glasses, coming from the collection of Simon Murray (Onspec-Ontic):

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (2001) – Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter, a pair of silver metal wire frame glasses. Round clear lenses, bordered in black matte finish, silver metal earpieces tipped with transparent plastic. Left frame arm inscribed ‘FRAME MADE IN ENGLAND’ and right earpiece numbered ’40 20 135′.
