A collection of personal items belonging to Sharon Tate, the actor murdered by Charles Manson’s followers in 1969, is to go on display ahead of an auction of her items.
Tate has kept a few items, like a black Chanel leather shoulder bag “where I can feel Sharon the most”, she said.
The items are being sold by Tate’s sister Debra, who was 15 at the time of the murder, because, she said, the pieces were becoming tougher to care for.
Additional lots in the sale and not in the exhibition include wedding gifts such as a portable chess set with cut crystal pieces.
