If you have a few grand you want to part with, you could have a piece of Hollywood History.

Star Wars model set to fetch a packet
A spacecraft from the first Star Wars film is set to fetch £100,000 - even though it's just 18ins by 14ins.
The T.I.E fighter is the prize item at an auction of Hollywood movie props, reports The Sun.
It is the filming miniature of the craft which knocked Darth Vader's fighter out of the trench allowing Luke Skywalker to destroy the Death Star.
Rubber shoes worn by actor Anthony Daniels as robot C-3PO are among other Star Wars items for sale.
Film fans have the chance to snap up more than 1,000 original pieces of Hollywood history at the end of this month.
Jack Nicholson's axe from The Shining is expected to sell for £4,000, the tablets held by Charlton Heston in 1956 classic The Ten Commandments for up to £25,000 and a monster used in Alien 3 for around £20,000.
A pair of silver space suits worn by Dr Evil and Mini-Me in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me should go for around £15,000.
The mask worn by Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man is set to fetch a similar price.
The sale on 31 July and 1 August features a huge collection of super-hero costumes including a Superman outfit worn on screen by Christopher Reeve.
Joseph Maddelena, of Hollywood auction house Profiles In History, said the sale was "a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire some of the most important visual effects pieces ever created for modern cinema".
I would like to have one of these:
The problem is I probably couldn't afford the fuel.
