Rick Grimes' (Andrew Lincoln) 11-Piece Signature Costume and Accessory Group from The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010-22)
DALLAS, Texas (Oct. 5, 2026) – Heritage Auctions is proud to present The Walking Dead Universe Auction, a Showcase auction featuring costumes, props and set pieces from the world of AMC’s hit series The Walking Dead. Taking place October 30, the sale offers fans and entertainment memorabilia collectors unprecedented access to acquire beloved pieces of television history directly from the archives of the network that created the series, which became a pop culture phenomenon and launched a thriving television franchise.

The Walking Dead follows survivors confronting the undead and the human conflicts that emerge after civilization collapses. Its costumes and props help tell that story, establishing the identities of its central characters and the deteriorated world around them.

Spotlight: Rick Grimes’ Signature Ensembles from across the series

Leading the highlights is Rick Grimes’ (Andrew Lincoln) 11-piece Signature Costume and Accessory Group from The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010–22). The group brings together elements of the signature appearance of the former sheriff’s deputy whose search for his family launched the series.

Rick’s transformation from lawman to survivor and community leader anchors much of the flagship series. His recognizable clothing and equipment connect collectors and fans alike with a character whose decisions shaped the lives of those around him.

Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus), 10-Piece Signature Ensemble and Hero Crossbow from The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010-22)
Additional Highlights from The Walking Dead Universe Auction:

Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus), 10-Piece Signature Ensemble and Hero Crossbow from The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010–22). The ensemble pairs Daryl’s signature look with the weapon most closely associated with him. A skilled hunter and tracker, Daryl became a central member of the survivor group, with his crossbow serving as one of the series’ most recognizable props.

Walker 26-Piece Costume Group from The Walking Dead Franchise (AMC, 2010-present)
Walker 26-Piece Costume Group from The Walking Dead Franchise (AMC, 2010–present). Representing the undead threat at the center of the franchise, this group shifts the spotlight to the Walkers that populate its post-apocalyptic world. Their deteriorated appearance and distressed clothing helped establish the visual identity of The Walking Dead.

The Commonwealth, Assortment of 46 Prop and Scene Dressing Items from The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010–22). Featured throughout Season 11, this collection includes street signs, banners and community maps and pamphlets from across the Commonwealth community.
