Los Angles, CA – One of the four remaining original copies of Schindler’s list hit the international mega-auction website eBay last night at 9 p.m. EDT, launching a ten day window in which the public will be able to bid for ownership of the legendary piece of history.

The NEW YORK POST (http://bit.ly/15tnE96) reports that reserve window for starting bids reads, “Enter US $3,000,000.00 or more.”

The document is being sold by two collectors from California, Gary Zimet and Eric Gazin, who say they hope to fetch as much as $5M for the prized piece.

There were originally seven versions of the list, but only four remain accounted for, with two now residing at Yad Vashem, the Israeli Holocaust Memorial Museum, and the other at the U.S. Holocaust Museum in Washington.

This marks the second time this particular version has hit eBay—-opening bids started at $2.2M back in 2010 when it was put on auction by the nephew of Schindler’s accountant Itzhak Stern.

Though the name of the current owner is not listed, information on the listing states “Free local pick-up,” and “Item location: Israel.”

The document’s new owner will also receive an affidavit from Stern’s nephew guaranteeing its authenticity.

Gary Zimet said that because a great number of the survivors and their descendants moved to the U.S., “There are names on this list which will sound very familiar to New Yorkers.
