And 13 personal items of the late martial arts star Bruce Lee have been auctioned off in Hong Kong. Let's head there now to see how popular the kungfu icon still is. The most popular item to come under the hammer was a traditional coat that Lee wore to a pre-production photo shoot for "Game of Death". He wore it again to the Hong Kong premiere of "Enter the Dragon", just a few days before his untimely death in 1973. The coat fetched the most money at Saturday's auction -- 76,923 US dollars. Also up for auction was a two-page hand-written letter from Lee to his star student and dear friend, Taky Kimura. In the letter, dated March 25th, 1966, Lee talked about filming the television show "The Green Hornet". In the end, the letter fetched $51,282. Lee's coat was bought by a couple from the United States. Silvana and Greg Manning said they were delighted to have made the successful bid on what they called "a unique item and a memorabilia for an iconic figure". In all, the 13 items raised 228,000 US dollars. Most items had been authenticated by Lee's surviving brother and Kimura.
