James Van Der Beek Auctioning Dawson’s Creek Items Amid Cancer Battle | E! News

James Vanderbeek is parting ways with some Dawson’s Creek treasures. The 48-year-old, who’s been battling stage three colon cancer for more than two years, is offering up several items from his personal collection in Prop Stores Winter Entertainment Memorabilia live auction that’s set to take place in December. James says in a statement on the UK company’s website, quote, I’ve been storing these treasures for years, waiting for the right time to do something with them. And with all the recent unexpected twists and turns life has presented recently, it’s clear that the time is now. He continues, quote, “And while I have some nostalgia tugging at me as I part with these items, it feels good to be able to offer them through Prop Stores auction to share with those who have supported my work over the years.” According to People, proceeds will go to the actor to help fund his battle against cancer. Among the items offered, a stuffed ET toy and an Indiana Jones figurine that served as set decorations in the bedroom of James’ Dawson’s Creek character, Dawson Liry, who was a major Steven Spielberg fan. Also included in the auction, several of Dawson’s clothes and accessories, including a white cotton blend Arcadia sweater, as well as a necklace with a black stone pendant that Dawson wore until he gifted it to Katie Holmes’s character, Joey Potter. James, who was diagnosed with cancer in August 2023, has shared several updates about his health journey since going public with his battle in November 2024. In September, James made a remote appearance at the Dawson’s Creek cast reunion at the Richard Rogers Theater in New York City. He had initially been scheduled to join his fellow alumni in person, but had to cancel after contracting two stomach viruses. [Music]
