Tom Hanks Sells His Custom Airstream with 24 Years of Movie History

It was his personal trailer while he was filming blockbuster movies ever since 1993.

Airstream trailers can be as timeless as they can be. They are both practical, comfortable, stylish, and elegant. An Airstream is a common vehicle that travels to campgrounds and rural areas all over the globe. However, this 1992 Model 34 Limited Excella trailer is not typical. It traveled to various movie sets all around the United States and was the literal home-away-from-home to Academy-Award-winning actor Tom Hanks. You can now buy it along with other amazing memorabilia.

During the Quail Lodge Auction , Carmel, California, August 13, the trailer will cross the block with Bonhams. It looks just like an Airstream on the outside, but you’ll notice stickers on the windows. This is not unusual among travelers who mark their places. However, stickers on the trailer commemorate Hanks’ many movie locations that span 24 years. The auction listing states that the locations range from 1993’s Sleepless In Seattle to 2017’s The Circle.
Inside, we see more Airstream decor. According to the auction listing, Hanks purchased the trailer in 1993. He specified a custom interior with only the kitchen and bathroom. Hanks wanted it to be a home away from home so he furnished it with his furniture. This includes a standard sofa with removable legs that can fit through the door. The back has a small bed, while the front is used as a living area with the electric fireplace and the sofa. The kitchen is accessed across the small dining room with table and chairs. All furniture is included in the sale.

furniture can also refer to a variety of accessories and memorabilia. You will find dishes, kitchen equipment, and even espresso machines in the cabinets. Hanks signed an Apollo 13 mug along with his fellow stars in the film, Bill Paxton and Kevin Bacon. Hanks signed the cabinet near the door and the Air conditioner, adding an extra special touch to the already exceptional Airstream.

The trailer will be purchased by a new owner on August 13. It’s being listed without any reserve so that it can sell as soon as it crosses the auction block. Bonhams predicts that the trailer will go for $150,000 to $250,000. This trailer will sell for between $150,000 and $250,000. We can only say that the sun will rise on the 13th of August because of the Hollywood connection.
