Est. $4,500-$5,500 Frank Sinatra Personally Owned (3) Silk Bow Ties From His 1994 New York Radio City Music Hall Appearance - This is a lot of (3) silk bow ties, which were personally owned by Frank Sinatra. As was his custom in his later years, Sinatra would travel with his entourage on a private plane to his various performances around the country. In 1994, his last full year of touring, Sinatra included his trusted personal assistant and housekeeper of his Rancho Mirage home, Raquel Suarez with his entourage. He stopped touring one year later, and Suarez was given a box which contained Sinatra’s private possessions, which she brought back with her from his New York trip. This New York trip would be his "ONLY NEW YORK APPEARANCE” in April, 1994 at Radio City Music Hall (please see photo of newspaper article promoting the performance). Most of the contents were personally given to her by Sinatra himself, after the Radio City Music Hall Concert events were finished. The box contained several of Sinatra’s show-related, personally owned and worn clothing accessories, and items regularly worn by him during his many performances, including these bow ties. The lot includes (1) pre-tied bow tie, (1) Nat Wise black silk bow tie, and (1) Mel Wise silk bow tie. All of the ties have been extremely well kept, and are in beautiful condition.
