Props used in films at Buckinghamshire company up for auction

Props used in James Bond films and the musical Mamma Mia! are up for auction on Monday.

For the past 35 years, Living Props in Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire has worked on some of the world’s best-known films and television productions.

The business, located near Pinewood Studios, was founded in 1991 by Brian Maslin, who was later joined by his son Blake, and Mick Lambert.

It is now closing and selling its stock including props, statues and benches as well as selected plants and specimen trees through an online auction, external.

Brian said he was sad to be leaving it all behind, but “we are leaving at the top of our game”.

Giving the reasons for closing, he said that a company was keen to buy the site and work was now coming “in fits and starts” – either very busy or very quiet.
