Schindler’s List Original Copy On Sale Again After Price Cut
![Schindler’s List Original Copy On Sale Again After Price Cut](https://imagez.tmz.com/image/0c/16by9/2023/12/11/0c372341f8c94bf1978b20e73d1ca971_xl.jpg)
The only copy of Schindler’s List ever for sale is hitting the market again … following a price cut.
The rare historical relic is currently on sale for $1.8 million through memorabilia company Moments in Time … via a collector who obtained the list from the family of Itzhak Stern — Schindler’s accountant and right-hand man.
Over the years, the list has been up for sale a few times … with its asking price always over $2M — the highest being $2.5M … though it’s never had any takers.
The collector hopes the lowered price is more affordable … with the site gushing over the opportunity to “acquire an item of truly incredible magnitude.”
This list, dated April 18, 1945, is the penultimate list of a total of 7 … coming in at 14 pages long and listing 801 names.
It’s also one of the only 4 lists in existence — one is homed at the Holocaust Museum in Washington D.C … the other two are in Israel’s Holocaust Remembrance Center Yad Vashem, in Jerusalem.
The sale of this item is especially relevant today … given the rapidly emerging antisemitism amid the Israel-Palestine conflict.
The docs were used by German industrialist Oskar Schindler … who saved more than 1,200 Jews’ lives during the Holocaust by employing them in his enamelware and ammunition factories.
He was the subject of Steven Spielberg‘s critically acclaimed 1993 film “Schindler’s List” … with the Liam Neeson/Sir Ben Kingsley-starring movie bagging 7 Oscars.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Headed for Divorce in Part Because of Her 'Love Addiction'

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are clearly headed for divorce, and some of the folks we’ve spoken with say one of the many reasons for the split — JLo’s “Love Addiction.”
TMZ has a new documentary on Hulu — ‘JLo & Ben: Missed Warning Signs’ — in which Dr. Phil, Dr. Drew, Psychotherapist Jen Mann and others say there are lots of reasons this relationship just didn’t work.
TMZ Studios
One of the people with whom we spoke is Jon Peters, the mega-producer of movies like “Flashdance” and “Prince of Tides,” who has a history of both dating famous people — including Barbra Streisand — and addiction.
Jon says it’s as clear to him as can be — JLo is a love addict. He says she’s needed a man in her life constantly.
TMZ.com
Dr. Drew signs off on the concept of “Love Addiction.” He says it’s a real thing, and JLo’s history shows she falls fast and hard in every relationship she’s had.
Everyone we interviewed says it’s important when one relationship ends, both people have “alone time” to figure out what went wrong, and that’s essential in making the next relationship work and endure. That has not happened with JLo … from Ojani Noa, to Chris Judd, to Marc Anthony, to A-Rod, to Ben Affleck … she’s never had alone time in between.
You can watch “TMZ Investigates: JLo and Ben: Missed Warning Signs,” on Hulu.

Part 2 of the TED Radio Hour episode The History Behind Three Words
New terms — like LatinX — are often pushed by activists to promote a more equitable world. But linguist John McWhorter says trying to enforce new words to speed up social change tends to backfire.
