RM Sotheby’s will auction the legendary 1929 De Havilland Gipsy Moth, featured in the Academy Award-winning film ‘Out of Africa,’ during the ModaMiami event on March 1-2, 2024.
Proceeds from the sale will contribute to the creation of a new rhino sanctuary in Kenya, benefiting the endangered black rhino species.
The Gipsy Moth registered G-AAMY, known for its role in the film’s visual storytelling, was last inspected for airworthiness in April 2022 and features unique American-made steel construction.
The auction represents a rare opportunity to own cinematic and aviation history while supporting wildlife conservation efforts in Africa.
Presumably this is a reproduction aircraft?
