  • What Happened to ‘The Man in the High Castle’ Swastika Props? Claim After 'The Man in the High Castle' season four aired, the production destroyed all swastikas, preventing resale. Rating True Like this fact check? Reporting As the fourth and final season of Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle aired, a post to Reddit’s r/oddlysatisfying asserted that producers were proactive in post-production handling of the show’s many swastikas and other Nazi memorabilia: The show High Castle destroyed every swastika they used during the show from oddlysatisfying Attached to a thread (The show High Castle destroyed every swastika they used during the show) was a video of unstated source. In it, plastic storage crates of fabric scraps appeared next to on-screen text stating burn pile. The clip then displayed a green cutting mat, a swastika, and a hand-held rotary cutter reducing a small fabric swastika to unrecognizable tatters. A similar post was shared to r/television . Props from popular television (and now streaming) shows, movies, and other entertainment ventures are part of a market unto itself. On November 18 2019, a Florida news site reported on an auction of non-Nazi props and other related memorabilia: If vintage animatronic birds, a tambourine-toting doll from it’s a small world or an armless Figment prop are exactly what your living room decor is lacking, you may be in luck. Van Eaton Galleries is planning an auction that’s packed with items from Walt Disney World and Disneyland. Florida is where wokes go to die...

Some of the offerings on the WDW section of the auction have historic appeal and are connected to bona fide Disney Legends. Folks will be able to bid Mary Blair’s ceramic-tile work that served as a prototype for that very tall mosaic in Disney’s Contemporary Hotel. Van Eaton estimates that will sell for between $12,000 and $15,000. In previous months, Star Wars and Batman props were also auctioned off. Socks belonging to Michael Jackson were also sold in November 2019, as were items from various James Bond films, and collectors sought and snatched up such offerings regularly. Amazon itself maintained a section of film and television props for sale . The final season of The Man in the High Castle began streaming on November 15 2019, and other streaming titles (like Marvel shows on Netflix ) had their props auctioned not long after their final seasons hit screens, with items ranging from $200 to $50,000. The premise of Man in the High Castle involved an alternate reality in which Allied forces lost World War II and America was divided between Japan and Nazi Germany. The fate of its production props was speculated upon on social sites like Quora: What do the producers of The Man In the High Castle plan to do with all the Nazi-themed props, such as the swastika-embellished home decor, after the series wraps? (And no, I don’t want it.) A question posted in 2018, quoted above, noted the unusually sensitive nature of The Man in the High Castle props. One user said overall props were typically sold, stored, or destroyed, and a second responded: I recommend a big bonfire and a multicultural party! That answer included a photograph of a swastika-emblazoned Nazi flag in flames. At that time, no one appeared to have any definitive information about Man in the High Castle ‘s Nazi props. Video included with the thread above was originally shared on Twitter by primary Man in the High Castle cast member Chelah Horsdal, who portrayed Reichsmarschall John Smith’s wife Helen Smith: Super satisfying...

Fellow cast member Tamlyn Tomita also shared the tweet, adding that the Japanese Rising Sun Imperial flag insignia should go, too, in reference to other High Castle memorabilia.
