Christopher Nolan's $1 billion-grossing epic immortalizes the story of the wartime race to create nuclear weapons, with the film the leading contender at the Academy Awards Sunday.
It has received 13 nominations, including for best picture, best actor and best director.
Among the items to go under the hammer in Boston is a report on the birth of the atomic bomb which was subsequently used against Japan, helping lead to the end of the Second World War.
It chronicles the Manhattan Project which was managed in secret in Los Alamos, a town built around a classified lab that was created from scratch in New Mexico at the suggestion of physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who had a lifelong passion for the surrounding mountains.
Dubbed the Smyth Report, the document was first released to the press on August 12, 1945, days after the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
"The report serves as a comprehensive overview of the scientific and administrative journey leading to the creation of one of humanity's most formidable weapons," according to the RR Auction House in Boston.
"Among the notable signatories are Enrico Fermi, renowned for creating the world's first nuclear reactor; J. Robert Oppenheimer, the visionary physicist who directed the Los Alamos Laboratory; Ernest Lawrence, Nobel laureate and pioneer of the cyclotron; James Chadwick, discoverer of the neutron; and Harold Urey, a Nobel Prize recipient and expert in isotope separation."
The current bid is in excess of $35,000, with the auction set to close on Wednesday.
Also under the hammer is a letter typed by Oppenheimer in which he decries his creation as "a weapon for aggressors."
"The elements of surprise and of terror are as intrinsic to it as are the fissionable nuclei," he wrote, signing the letter to a journalist writing about Russia's nuclear arsenal as "Opie."
The leading bids is currently in excess of $4,000.
