WASHINGTON – Starting at 9:02 pm (PDT) on Friday, October 20th, bidding will begin to start closing on the popular eBay featured, one-of-a-kind, on-line auction of historical memorabilia from the 2005 hit movie Brokeback Mountain – the unforgettable Focus Features film directed by Academy Award winner Ang Lee.

Focus Features and James Schamus, producer of Brokeback Mountain, have graciously donated the proceeds of the auction to benefit the Human Rights Campaign’s work towards achieving equality for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans.

The Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest gay, lesbian bisexual and transgender rights organization, in conjunction with Delivery Agent Inc., the leader in shopping enabled programming for television shows, motion pictures, sports, and music videos, have made the auction available for bidding on-line from October 13 until midnight, October 20 on www.seenon.com..

To learn more about the on-line auction or to place bids on this incredible and historic piece of Hollywood memorabilia please visit www.seenon.com/auction/. A letter of authenticity will be offered with each sale.

The collection was first previewed on Saturday, October 7 at the Human Rights Campaign’s 10th Annual National Dinner held in Washington, D.C. when a live auction of the first outfit from the film raised $18,000 to benefit the programs of the Human Rights Campaign.

“The overwhelming response to this one-of-a-kind auction continues to underscore the way in which Brokeback Mountain touched so many lives in a very profound and personal way,” said Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese. “Not only will bidders receive a remarkable part of Hollywood history, they will also be investing in promoting and securing equality for all Americans.”

“Delivery Agent is proud to be part of this important film’s historic auction,” said Mike Fitzsimmons, CEO of Delivery Agent. “The amazing consumer response is a clear indication of people’s desire to support the incredible work of HRC and own the products seen on screen.”

The Human Rights Campaign is the largest national lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender political organization with members throughout the country. It effectively lobbies Congress, provides campaign support and educates the public to ensure that GLBT Americans can be open, honest and safe at home, at work and in the community.
