Soprano wardrobe for Christie’s pop culture auction
Published May 28th, 2008
U.S. actor James Gandolfini is selling off the outfits he wore in The Sopranos to raise cash for charity.
The 24 lots for sale include a bloody outfit worn when Tony Soprano was shot by Uncle Junior which is estimated to fetch up to $3,000.
Gandolfin’s TV wardrobe will be auctioned at Christie’s pop culture auction on 25 June in New York.
The auction will benefit the Wounded Warrior Project, a nonprofit organization that assists men and women of the American armed forces who have been severely wounded in recent international conflicts.
Soprano’s signature white tank top, light blue striped boxer shorts, striped short robe and leather scuffs are also up for grabs and could make $1,500.
Other costumes will also be auctioned including a selection worn by other characters, including Junior Soprano, Paulie Walnuts and AJ Soprano.
It is hoped the whole auction will raise more than $35,000
