The sale, which could raise up to $112,900, is believed to be the largest-scale auction of his memorabilia in the southern Chinese city, where Lee was raised before moving to the US.

Items to be sold include a letter he wrote 45 years ago to a friend in which the martial arts specialist talked about the television series The Green Hornet, in which he played Kato, a confidant of the superhero.
