Matthew Perry Estate Auction Features Friends Memorabilia and Banksy Works
Heritage Auctions will sell artifacts from Matthew Perry's estate starting June 5, with proceeds benefiting the Matthew Perry Foundation. The sale includes 26 scripts from Friends, a personal photo album, a replica of Monica's peephole frame, and the 1995 Screen Actors Guild Award. Warner Bros. Television donated two signed scripts: the pilot 'Six of One' and the finale 'The Last One, Part I.' Artworks include Banksy's Girl and Balloon (2005) and Nola Grey (2008), and Mel Bochner's I Forget What I Forgot (2022). A 3D portrait of 'Mattman' and two tickets to The Batman Part II premiere are also offered. Estimates remain undisclosed, but previous Friends memorabilia auctions saw high prices, such as a Central Perk couch replica selling for $29,250 in 2024. The foundation, established after Perry's 2023 death, aims to combat addiction stigma. CEO Lisa Kasteler Calio emphasized the auction's role in expanding access to care. Joe Maddalena of Heritage Auctions noted the sale connects fans to Perry's legacy.
