Another piece of Star Wars history sold at auction, this time with Julien's Auctions in Las Vegas.

Namely, one of Harrison Ford's (believed to be) hero blasters from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, used during the production. The listing for the item in the catalog says it's believed to be one of the 4 production-used blasters on the film, but is not the blank firing 'practical' one.
