Black Sails Prop and Memorabilia Auction

Get your hands on an actual piece of the action!

If Black Sails is the wind beneath your wings or you’re just a cinephile generally, then this event is sure to be on your schedule for July. From Friday, 21 to Saturday, 22 July 2017, the makers of Black Sails are hosting a prop auction that is open to serious bidders, at Cape Town Film Studio. Pretty much everything (bar the actual boats) is going on sale, and this opportunity will not come around again.

For those of you that don’t know the joy that is Black Sails, allow me to educate you. The show is filmed in Cape Town (yay) but is actually an American television series. It follows the life and times of various privateer characters who sail the seas in search of new and exciting adventures. There’s a lot of action, suspense and drama, but let’s not get into that now. All you need to know is that all the things you see on set are up for sale and you could get your hands on them.

THINGS BEING SOLD AT THE 2017 BLACK SAILS PROP AUCTION

• Cannons and Rigs
