WalterFilm buys Movie Scripts, Television Scripts & Movie Memorabilia

My company, Walter Reuben, Inc., actively buys movie and television scripts as well as movie memorabilia. It doesn’t matter what kind of movie or TV show it is: popular or obscure, low budget, indie film, or large studio spectacular. This includes horror movies, TV sitcoms, Oscar winning dramas or silly comedies. I can buy a few scripts or a large collection.

Los Angles is Filled with Scripts

People who work in the film and television industry, in a variety of capacities, may have valuable assets in the scripts they, their parents or a relative has worked on. I have acquired scripts directly from writers, actors, and crew members, as well as the estates of people who worked in the industry.

Movie Memorabilia

In addition to scripts, there are story boards, models, and, of course, props, as well as a variety of additional items that have been directly connected to a particular production, many of which have value.

Knowledge, Experience & Fair Play

However, not everything has value just because the item was associated with a film or television show. I have had a lifetime of experience buying such collections. Here is a descriptive list of Walter Film Collections and information on our Curatorship. In addition, I make every effort to treat people fairly.

If you believe you have material that might be of interest, please contact me at info@walterfim.com or 323-422-1564.
