Bidding will open on thousands of pieces Hollywood model maker Greg Jein collected over his lifetime, including many he created during his nearly half-century career.
A miniature model called"Red Leader", a X-wing starfighter from the 1977 film, Star War, Episode IV, A New Hope, sits on display at Heritage Auctions, Thursday, Aug. 30, 2023, in Irving, Texas.
Jein, who grew up in Los Angeles, began his career in the mid-1970s, and over the decades worked on movies including “The Dark Knight Rises,” “The Hunt for Red October” and “Avatar.” A fan of “Star Trek” from the start, he later worked on pieces for the franchise. Other creations from Jein's career going up for auction include a miniature wrecked spaceship from the 1997 film “Starship Troopers" and a miniature shack, airplanes and newspapers from Spielberg’s 1979 war comedy “1941.”
Lou Zutavern, Jein’s longtime friend and shop supervisor, said Jein had a love for Hollywood history and a passion for collecting. When Jein was around 10, he surprised Chang and Chang's brother following a visit to Disneyland by creating a detailed replica of the theme park in his bedroom.
