Screenbid Grimm Auction – rare items from the TV show!

The Grimm auction put on by Screenbid ran from 7pm on March 31st (timed to start with the airing of the Grimm series final episode), to 11pm on April 6th. There were so many neat items but they were just way out of the price range I was willing to spend. I was fortunate enough to bid on and win three different lots that I split with another fan.

Two of the lots were Portland Police Bureau case files and paperwork – including one authored by Sergeant Wu AND one authored by Detective Hank Griffin!

The third lot I won was a bunch of Multnomah Hotel items. I was super excited about this lot because I am a huge Portland history buff. The hotel they filmed at is actually called the Embassy Suites Downtown. But the hotel was originally called the Multnomah Hotel! The original Multnomah Hotel existed from 1912 to 1963 in that building. In 1995 the building was renovated and became the Embassy Suites Downtown hotel. If you note the address on the props, they list a fictional address of 319 SW 1st Street. The address of the Embassy Suites is 319 SW Pine Street.

This lot is from Season 4, Episode 2. It’s when Trubel tails their suspect into the Multnomah Hotel.

You can see in the photos below that they even labeled his room key correctly: Room 402. And the notepad is the same one the actor used in the scene when he wrote down the phone number and address!
