FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Connie Francis is auctioning some of her favorite trinkets at Heritage Auctions in Beverly Hills on Sunday.
The offerings include the bomber jacket she wore performing in Vietnam, a love letter from Bobby Darin where he laments he’s “unhappy & miserable without you” and a 13-carat emerald ring with diamonds. She’s also auctioning several letters from her famous friends, including Frankie Avalon, Dick Clark and Frank Sinatra.
Francis’ decades-long career was marked by all the glittering things of Hollywood royalty. There were No. 1 hits, iconic movies, Hollywood boyfriends, glamorous gowns and TV appearances on “American Bandstand” and “The Ed Sullivan Show.”
