Kung fu legend Bruce Lee's memorabilia items to be sold in Hong Kong auction next week, including a 1966 letter he wrote and a fur-lined coat will go under the hammer in auction.
The sale, which could raise up to HK$880,000 ($112,900), is believed to be the largest-scale auction of his memorabilia in the southern Chinese city, where Lee was born before moving to the United States in his late teens.
Bruce Lee Fan Club chairman Wong Yiu-keung told the South China Morning Post, "The item is meaningful in the sense that it can allow us to understand more about Bruce Lee's views and what he thought about his work at that time."
Meanwhile, other items to be sold at the August 6 auction include a dark-blue fur-lined coat which was made around 1973 for Lee's film "Game of Death"
The Hong Kong government said last month that it has shelved a plan to turn Lee's old home in the southern Chinese city in which later became a rundown love hotel -- into a museum, citing differences with the property owner.
Bruce Lee -- credited with catapulting the martial arts film genre into the mainstream with films including "Fists of Fury" and the posthumously released "Enter the Dragon" -- died after a severe reaction to medication.
