The bar from the T.V. series Cheers sold for $675,000 over the weekend, earning the highest bid among the nearly 1,000 props, costumes, and sets from classic shows up for auction.

The item came from TV memorabilia enthusiast James Comisar who said the bar was in the studio’s storage facility with a dead skunk in it when he acquired it.

Other items sold at the auction include the Batman and Robin costumes worn by Adam West and Burt Ward in the 1960s television series, which sold for $615,000, and The Tonight Show set where Johnny Carson hosted guests, which went for $275,000.

If you could own one piece of T.V. memorabilia, what would it be?
