Glenn Close Is Having A Tag Sale

Her last gasp before Go Fund Me.

Dude, she lives near me! I am so going! I just blocked off 9 - 10 am on Thursday, and will report back!

BTW, the "good" stuff is being auctioned in March at the Bedford Historical Hall.

Good to know, OP. I am not sure if the tag sale will be at her house or elsewhere, but I just made up a bogus breakfast meeting for Thursday morning so I can go.

She's quite the hoarder!

Good heavens—so dreary.

I was afraid it was going to come to this. That’s why I always ask “Is there something for Dear Glenn?” whenever I pass on a project. Not the part I was offered, of course. There are limits to how much disbelief an audience can be asked to suspend.

“ I want all of this shit picked up NOW!”

Multiple indoor air filters. Is she smokey?

Some of that memorabilia should really go to BCEFA.

So the joke is that it's Glenn's estate sale because the first picture is of her as Cruella in doll form? Is that right?

I thought was one of the thousands of Maxie dolls that failed to sell.

Old towels. Too much old lady smell for me.

R11, you didn’t scroll through. It IS her stuff.

Oh, I hope there's an enema bag for sale. You can never collect enough enema bags from famous people. It's almost they're inside you. Except, I don't want Sharon Stone's. Everyone's seen that.

I heard it's vadge cancer...

I want a Maxie doll! I want to be Lookin’Smart!

Remember all of the lunatics on this website who were convinced that Glenn was a shoo-in for the Best Actress Oscar? They can’t wait to sniff her panties.

Omg! Those needlepoint dish towels were made by my grandmother! My grandmother cleaned her parents home in Wyoming for years and when Glenn married her second husband those were her wedding gift from my grandmother. I know they are hers because all of us kids have them as well as embroidered pillow cases. I wish I was in NY for this, I would love to have them.

Not glamorous at all, is it?

The white ones in the front.

I certainly hope she’s not reduced to selling off her Oscar. Oh, wait...

R21, I'm not near the sale . If I were I would pick them up for you. Is there a phone number you can call to get a hold of the towels?

Unfortunately, Glenn's cell service was cut off when she failed to pay her bill. She now takes calls only sporadically on the payphone at the White Plains bus station.

[quote]Her last gasp before Go Fund Me. —M

Geez, you talk about her like she's Dee from [italic]What's Happening!![/italic] or something.

Where does this say it’s Glenn’s?

It's her stuff. Her stationary.

Her stationary and signature. There are 131 photos. Lordy.

R19, I bet if you called the tag sale company they can sell them to you before the sale starts. Otherwise I can get them for you. How much are you willing to spend?

StationEry.

Glenn is RICH....old money rich.....She must be decluttering and I imagine the money is going to charity (I would hope) And thanks for the offers and ideas about getting the dish towels. It is just cool to see them..I really need to get rid of a bunch of stuff myself.

Will she be selling Fatal Attraction Barbies?

I would have seriously considered going if there was a Betty & Veronica Double Digest in the bookcase.

No one should buy anyone's family fungus-infused towels.

It’s nice to know that I have nicer junk than Glenn Close.

You can see how much she treasured those towels, r21. They’re so clean and perfectly folded, why it’s almost as if she never even used them at all.

Is that stationary engraved? Anyone can pay for thermography.

R35 = Albert Nobbs

StationEry with an e as in envelope. That’s how I remember.

“These low prices won’t be ignored, shoppers!”

I doubt she smokes. It would ruin her beautiful singing voice. Oh wait...

You’re not going to IGNORE me, are you?

Junky bric a brac. Embarrassed for her

"M" is having a field day in this thread. Maybe she should get ready for the Oscar ceremony this year. Oh wait ....

Second straight year without a nod. Gonna be a third if that Prom film doesn't pan out and that Soderbergh collab fails (again) next year.

Move’n down, to a studio apartment on the lower east side.

“Glenn’s a shoe-in, Glenn’s a shoe-in, Gle...........”

This looks like any old lady's house. Disappointing.

Glenn is awfully quiet...

She should have sent the towels to an animal shelter. But then, Cruella...

I was like haha that's not really Glenn and then...

Catherine Deneuve has an Yves Saint Laurent auction at Christie's for God's sake...then there's THIS.

Qu'est-ce qu'il se passe ?!

R39 That’s handy. I can use this tip.

I like how in the fourth picture with the clothes displayed on racks there are pet stairs that lead up to the window seat. She's not really like Cruella at all. But agree, old towels and bedding should be donated to an animal shelter.

[quote]StationEry with an e as in envelope. That’s how I remember.

And stationAry with an 'a' as in adjective.

[quote]“Glenn’s a shoe-in, Glenn’s a shoe-in, Gle...........”

Oh, dear.

"The LOONS, the LOONS!"

R53 The stairs are for her dog Pip.

Aww - I’d make her an offer for those, r57.

Anything from when she played the young a vibrant Nellie Forbush at the age of 53? Asking for a friend....and don't forget my auction at Bonham's!!

R55 oh, dear queer, I’m sorry, I was using the younger, morecontemporary, more modern usage of the word!

In the other words R60 the version that so many ignorant and illiterate dunces use that they considerate it the proper usage?

No cell phones allowed inside the house.

[quote] oh, dear queer, I’m sorry, I was using the younger, morecontemporary, more modern usage of the word!

oh dear yourself. You are using the wrong word. There is no "more contemporary" or "more modern" usage of the word. The word you used has ALWAYS been the wrong word in that situation. And it ALWAYS will be. It's only appropriate for ignorant people to use the word "shoe" the way you chose to. That's something a fool like trump would say

[quote] morecontemporary

That's not a word. I'm guessing you ACTUALLY MEANT, more contemporary. You seem to be an all around idiot

Any Patti LuPone albums or VHS box sets of "Life Goes On?"

R63 Hey retard, in this country we use periods. Period.

R63 For someone who thinks & writes in such a disjointed, sloppy and amazingly UNITERESTING way, you should be correcting absolutely no one, EVER!

Is tag sale a regional term? I've never heard it before, yard sale, garage sale, estate sale, rummage sale, I've heard all of them but never a tag sale.

Miss Martha Stewart always calls them tag sales. I've never heard anyone on the west coast use that term.

In this case "tag sale" is accurate, since Glenn is selling her collection of recently-removed skin tags.

I want Glenn's used dildo on that dresser!!!!

Is there an auction too? Is the stuff online?

So I went, mostly local fraus and a few collectors. Had to wait outside while they let a few people in at a time. Very little memorabilia, and if you didn't know you were at Glenn Close's house, you could have been at anyone's tag sale. Tons of books on a wide variety of subjects, kitchen items, a lot of Christmas stuff. I bought a few Christmas cookie cutters, gnome candles, and a miniature Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. R19, I bought the embroidered towels but I don't think they are the ones your grandma made. There were three, in brand-new condition with a label that said The Gordonsbury Company/hand embroidered. Maybe they reminded Glenn of the ones your grandma gave her, or someone else gave them to her as a gift after seeing the originals. All in, I spent $20, including a set of white bunny ears for irony.

The house is lovely, with a barn and upstairs office/studio space, and a separate guest house. Nice piece of property in an old neighborhood that hasn't been destroyed by teardowns and rebuilds, although the house across the street is being expanded. Overall, the house seems homey and comfortable. Not my style, but the kitchen is very impressive and you can tell it is the heart of the home. The upstairs bedrooms are small. There was quite a bit of couture clothing and I saw a tiny woman try on a gorgeous black coat, she was probably about a size 4 or 6. I didn't realize Glenn was that small, or maybe it was her daughter's coat.

Apparently the house hasn't sold yet, but she is planning to move to Montana.

You didn't snap up the Meryl Streep voodoo doll? Or the Olivia Colman one? Maybe she's still using them.

Thanks for the skinny, R72. Montana, huh? Wonder if she's retiring.

Makes sense about the towels....I think the wedding was sometime in the mid 80's. She probably got rid of them years ago. I always hoped I would meet her and tell her about our funny connection. My mom used to tell me things about her years before she became super famous. My grandmother would tell my mom stuff about the family (all nice things, she really loved them) so I felt as if I knew her in a way.

R75 I have to say, I respect people when their help truly loves them. It is a great way to judge the rich. It is why I don't like making them sign non-disclosure agreements, if you treat them correctly you have nothing to fear.

The Gordonsbury dish towels retail for $22 each, so I scored at $5 for three. I'll keep one and give two to my mom. Who else can say they have a dish rag from Glenn Close?

Very cool, r77, and thank you for representing DL at La Maison Close!

I thought it said famous hag Glenn Close was having a fag sale. After decades of pitch perfect hagging, she had tired of her regular devoted group of caftan clad gays.

She kept her Oscar nomination plaques. Liza sold off hers recently. You'd think G would want to get rid of them. All seven of them. All seven that she didn't win the Oscar for but just got a participation plaque. I condole G.

From Page Six:

Selling her wedding gifts? Now, that is a new low.

[italic]And your granny worked her little fingers to the BONE on those!![/italic]

Endearing footage:

G participating in a talent show at her current residence.

Some kind of a spa? Is it,not? ...think "Now,Voyager"

[quote]Who else can say they have a dish rag from Glenn Close?

Anyone who bought a piece of her wardrobe.

Sounds like vag cancer..

Beanfield property has been sold!

So she’s moved out of state entirely?

Well if she’s filming or doing promotion she can afford a fancy hotel.

R86 - the listing agent was Muffin Dowdle.

Seriously, you can't make this shit up.

Apparently Muffin Dowdle is one of Bedford Hill's top real estate brokers.

Who knew?

Property was owned by Succabone Trust, with Ms. Close being sole trustee, guess she will save on taxes.
