Getty Images Personal items from the estate of late “Friends” star Matthew Perry are headed to auction next month in partnership with his non-profit foundation, which aims to reduce the stigma around addiction. Among the “Friends”-related items up for purchase are a collection of 26 scripts for episodes including “The One With Ross’s Tan,” “The One Where Joey Speaks French” and the two-part series finale, “The Last One”; two other scripts signed by Perry, and his co-stars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer which were donated by Warner Bros.; a photo album titled “The One With the Last Supper,” with a letter from “Jenny” in the back; and Perry’s replica of the yellow peephole frame from Monica’s apartment. Beginning June 5, the charity auction will donate its net proceeds to “advance Matthew’s most meaningful legacy: building a future free from addiction stigma, where every person seeking recovery has access to the care, resources and the community they need to thrive,” according to a statement from Heritage Auctions. Additional beneficiaries include the Matthew Perry Foundation Fellowship in Addiction Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital; Healing Appalachia, a recovery-focused sober music festival; and grassroots recovery grants for other frontline organizations. Perry battled addictions for much of his life and died on Oct. 28, 2023, from the effects of ketamine use.
