There's an article in today's New York Times about the sale. Apparently, most of the cool stuff was sold to "a private bidder" the night before the sale. Burton fans who lined up for the sale got the scraps. Bummer.

But by 9 a.m. on Friday, not too much was left of her past with Mr. Burton, he of the spooky sets and dark palette, who first came to prominence with the ghoulish comedy hit "Beetlejuice." It turned out that Ms. Marie had unloaded most of the movie props and furniture to a private bidder the night before, who had carted everything away in trucks. The main movie item left was a velvet chaise lounge from the 1994 movie "Ed Wood," priced at $20,000.
