CINEMA lovers will get the chance to buy iconic images from recent film history at a charity auction.

The film poster sale, at the Odeon Cinema, in Darlington, will feature promotional material from films including The Simpsons, Hulk and What Happens In Vegas.

Also up for grabs will be an exclusive Indiana Jones hat and whip, among other merchandise and clothing.

All the money raised at the sale will go towards the NSPCC.

Tony Penaluna, from the cinema, said: "We had a backlog of old stock, so rather than give them away as we normally do, we thought we would auction them off for a good cause."

The event will take place in the cinema, in North Road, at noon on Sunday, June 22.
