If you've ever wanted the personal phone numbers and addresses from the likes of Michael Jackson, Barbara Streisand, Jay Leno, Clint Eastwood and more, soon you could be in luck. The old little black address book from legendary singer Sammy Davis Jr. is going to auction.
Los Angeles auction house Nate D. Sanders is auction off Davis' personal address book from the 1980s, and it's understandably filled with some of the biggest names in the industry. Hollywood stars from then and now such as Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bill Cosby, Willie Nelson, Gene Kelly, Julie Andrews, Jack Lemon, Smokey Robinson, Rod Stewart, Kenny Rodgers and more are among the names in the book's handwritten pages.
According to the auction website, over 100 celebrity names are included.
Let's just say Sammy Davis Jr. was a well-connected guy!
With the likes of Jackson, Martin, Sinatra, Cary Grant and more included, the address book is much like a time capsule of a bygone era.
The auction will begin later today (July 31), with the minimum bid beginning at a reasonable $4000. It's the perfect gift for the old Hollywood lover in your life or, of course, a museum curator.
Davis was a legendary singer and tap dancer, of course best known for his involvement in the famous Rat Pack, which included Sinatra, Martin, Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford.
He passed away in 1990 of throat cancer at the age of 64, shortly after he would have used this address book.
