After tremendous interest worldwide, Spink China's Bruce Lee Memorabilia Sale has surpassed the estimate of almost every lot, sometimes by hundreds of thousands. The sale total passed 2 million HK$ with just fourteen lots.
 
This year marks the fortieth anniversary of Bruce Lee's death, and today Spink celebrated his remarkable life with a collection of memorabilia ranging from highly collectable autographs to personal clothing, jewellery and iconic weapons.
 
The room was packed with bidders, photographers and television crews as Spink China began one of our most impressive autographs sales to date.
 
Leading the highlights was Bruce Lee's 'Game of Death' jumpsuit, which was personally designed, commissioned and worn by Bruce Lee during the filming of 'Game of Death' in 1972. While estimated to fetch between HK$250,000 and 300,000, it reached an amazing $780,000.
