The sale includes never-before-seen photographs of the stars gathered at the intimate farewell meal marking the end of the show, signed scripts from the first and last episodes of Friends, a personal letter written by Jennifer Aniston, and other lots such as a Motorola flip phone, wallet, and AmEx card.
It lasted for ten seasons and the series finale attracted more than 50million viewers in the US alone. But if the end of Friends in 2004 was a source of great sorrow for its fans all over the world, it seems that for the cast it was occasion for a dinner party.
And now never-before-seen photographs of the stars gathered at the intimate farewell meal marking the end of the show have emerged in a sale from Matthew Perry's estate. The actor, who spent a decade making millions laugh as the wisecracking Chandler Bing in Friends, died of a drugs overdose in 2023 aged 54.
More than 130 items from his estate will be auctioned next month to raise money for the Matthew Perry Foundation – a charity set up after his death to help those battling addiction. The farewell meal photos are in a photo album titled The One With The Last Supper – a reference to the way episodes of Friends were named.
Believed to have been given to Perry by Jennifer Aniston after filming wrapped in 2004, the album contains photographs of the cast gathered around a dining table. Tucked inside is a handwritten note signed: 'Jenny.

A leather-bound copy of his memoir Friends, Lover And The Big Terrible Thing is also included in the sale, along with a 1995 Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series. Roberta Kramer, of Heritage Auctions, said: 'It's a combination of all kinds of things. Things relating to his work on Friends and other shows and films, but a lot of very personal things too.
