Sound of Music Curtain Costumes Up for Auction

There’s been a lot of hoopla this year marking 50th anniversary of the release of The Sound of Music.

If you consider yourself a huge fan--and people from all over the world travel to Austria each year to re-enact scenes from the film--you have the chance to own the actual curtain costumes worn by the von Trapp children in the movie. These are the costumes worn when the children learn the song Do-Re-Mi.

They’re being offered by Nate D. Sanders, an auction house that specializes in Hollywood memorabilia.

Starting bid: $800,000. You have until April 30 to raid your piggy bank.
