I read that the museum fell through and she had to sell the collection to
pay off some debts associated with the project.

You are welcome Julie. From what I have read the sell bought 18 million. I
idn't hear about the sale until it was on the TV news Saturday. But I
idn't see TV or internet from June 1-12 because of my son's wedding. I did
ome backtracking to find out the info that I shared with you all. I have
oined Profiles in History Facebook page
ttp://www.facebook.com/ProfilesInHistory to receive updates. That is where
found out that the next sale is in Dec. Maybe we can order the next
atalog's sale when they announce its publication. I'll make sure to let
ou know when it is available. People are begging for another issue to be
ublished of the first catalog.
Maybe because of Debbie's age that she decided to sell the collection. She
s 77 years old. There are supposed to have been a museum for her
ollection near Dollywood. I guess it fell through.
From reading their FB page, there were several buyers. Some of Errol
lynn's costumes went to a small museum in Ohio. I was sad that I missed
he auction being a live feed online. My daughter-in-law saw some of the
uction on TVs in Vegas casinos.
A couple of people on my business FB page had bought the catalogs. I don't
now how they heard about the auction. I would have flown in to see the
ollection if I had known about it beforehand. There were three preview
ates and people were allowed to photograph the costumes.
The V&A is going to exhibit a select few of the costumes. There is a page
n the beginning of the book.
