Over the course of five seasons, the hit HBO® series
Boardwalk Empire consistently wowed critics and fans with its riveting performances, beautiful production quality and creative blending of fact and fiction, pitting original characters against infamous real-life gangsters such as Al Capone and Lucky Luciano. But what really set the series apart was its precise attention to Prohibition Era details and its use of tailor-made costumes and vintage accessories and props that brought color and life to an era typically seen through a black-and-white lens. Now, fans, fashionistas and memorabilia collectors can take home an authentic piece of the Emmy® and Golden Globe-winning series, which just ended its successful run in November, through an exclusive online auction of hundreds of beautiful wardrobe pieces and authentic memorabilia straight from set, with leading Hollywood collectibles auction site ScreenBid.
