Other items include microphones from his live shows, letters from notable figures including presidents and celebrities and drawings that Bennett created himself.
Up for auction is also a San Francisco Giants jersey with ‘Bennett 4’ written on the back and ‘World Series Champions SF’ and ‘San Francisco Giants Baseball Club’ on the sleeves.
Bennett’s most acclaimed personal art collection, including works by David Hockney, Willem de Kooning and LeRoy Neiman and More will be up for sale.
According to the auction site, there is also a never Before Seen ’75th Birthday Book of Extraordinary Letters’ with more than 100 Pieces Written by Martin Scorsese, Presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and George Bush, Madonna, Elton John, John Travolta, Barbra Streisand, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, Stevie Wonder, and more.
Another letter, signed by Lady Gaga, with the words, ‘That’s Why the Lady is a Tramp’ is also included in the auction.
His son, Danny Bennett, found the letters along with hundreds of other memorabilia items that his father, who died last summer at 96-years-old, left in a storage unit in New York.
‘He had a collection,’ he said to Rolling Stone, ‘It was very personal to him.’
Danny told the publication that his father never had any awards in his house.
‘We never grew up that way. They were all in my office. Tony would find them very distracting,’ he told the outlet.
Danny Bennett reportedly asked Winehouse to sign a sheet of music at his father’s request that they used to sing the smash shit ‘Body and Soul’ in March 2011, just months before the death of Winehouse.

Amy died of alcohol poisoning at her north London home on July 23, 2011.
Tony described Amy’s passing as ‘one of the saddest things that ever happened in my life’ while he labelled her as ‘very special’ and ‘so talented’.
During an interview with Insider in 2016, the then-90-year-old recalled the moment he found out she had died, saying he ‘was so shocked’ by the news he just ‘started crying.’
‘I’d never heard anyone sing so well…a beautiful singer,’ he gushed about his close friend.
Back in 2011, Tony opened up about Amy’s death for the first time, labelling it as a ‘tragedy’.
‘What I wanted to do, I wanted to stop her, I wanted to tell her that many years ago I was naughty also with some drugs,’ he explained to E! News at the time.

Back in 2011, Tony opened up about Amy’s death for the first time, labelling it as a ‘tragedy’
‘[Jack Rollins] said one sentence that changed my life: He said, ‘He sinned against his talent’… I wanted to tell her [Amy] that but I had to leave because we were touring all over the world making this album, and I never got a chance to do it.’
Two years after her death, it was revealed she had spent her final hours drinking vodka alone in her bedroom and watching YouTube videos of herself.
A second inquest into the 27-year-old’s death revealed she had drunk so much that she stopped breathing and fell into a coma.
The inquest was re-heard because the coroner at the first hearing did not have the correct qualifications.
