Trekcetera was the first ever, officially licensed Star Trek museum. But it was more than just Star trek, and included items from movies and TV shows, mostly ones like Brokeback Mountain and Hell on Wheels, and even Superman which were filmed in Alberta, Canada, where Drumheller is located.
Sadly, the Trekcetera Museum closed this year due to overwhelming debt. But now you can own a piece of the museum, as Propworx has been chosen by the Canadian government to sell all of the assets of the museum. And thus on Sunday, August 18th, 2019, all the props & costumes from the museum will be up for auction on the Liveauctioneers website, which Propworx has used for almost 10 years.
But even more, being huge fans of the museum, its founders Michael Mangold and Devan Daniels, and movie memorabilia, we are working to reopen the museum in 2020 as the Canadian Museum of Film and Television! A new non-profit is being formed for the museum and we are recruiting a literally top notch museum industry experts for the Board of Trustees.
And your purchase at the auction will help fund a new museum! Myself and half a dozen collectors have already offered to loan their collections to help re-open the museum, and the landlord has offered to cut the rent in almost half because he wants the museum to stay open.
