Playboy pooh-bah Hugh Hefner’s iconic pipe, silk pajamas and smoking jacket are up for sale next week as items from the raunchy rebel’s personal collection go under the hammer in La La Land.
Auction lots range from Hef’s personal stack of Playboys, which could fetch up to $40,000, to the signature smoking jacket ($3,000–$5,000) and silk pajamas ($1,000–$2,000). A carved briar pipe with custom Playboy Bunny logo is expected to net up to $3,000.
Hefner, who was known to attend Los Angeles Laker basketball games with Playboy girlfriends in tow, was given a 1980 championship ring by team owner Jerry Buss. The sparkler’s list price is $2,000-$4,000.
