'Superman' costume auctions for $115,000

Christopher Reeve's outfit in the movie "Superman" and the latex creature suit from "Alien" were among pieces of memorabilia that fetched more than $2 million at auction, the company that sponsored the auction said.

More than 700 items were sold at the Thursday auction, including costumes, scripts and posters, said memorabilia company Profiles in History, which hosted the event.

Some of the most expensive pieces that sold: Superman's leotard, which pulled in $115,000 and a Winkie Guard costume from "The Wizard of Oz," which sold for the same amount, the company said.

The biggest draw, however, was the creature costume used in the 1979 Ridley Scott film "Alien," which sold for $126,500.

Other items sold included Marilyn Monroe's personal script from "The Seven Year Itch," which brought $69,000; Val Kilmer's Batman costume from "Batman Forever," for $63,000; and Hugh Jackman's Wolverine claws from "X2: X-Men United" for $40,250.
