Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe, how much for the baseball bat that struck the killing blow? AMC and Goldin Auctions have revealed the biggest sales from The Walking Dead props auction, which opened on September 27th and closed on October 15th. More than 100 iconic props and other screen-used items from the AMC zombie drama were up for bid, including Negan’s (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) “vampire bat” Lucille; Rick Grimes’ (Andrew Lincoln) Colt Python revolver; Michonne’s (Danai Gurira) katana; Daryl’s (Norman Reedus) motorcycle and crossbows; and the Stetson hat worn by Carl (Chandler Riggs) and later Judith Grimes (Cailey Fleming).
Negan’s production-used bullet-struck Lucille bat — which the Savior leader used to bash the brains out of Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) and Glenn (Steven Yeun) — won the highest bid, selling for $51,600 after 34 bids. The “Hero” version, which is designed with the intent to be seen close up, also bears the embedded round fired by a vengeful Rosita (Christian Serratos) in Season 7 Episode 8, “Hearts Still Beating.”
