Monica Lewinsky’s black negligee and Bill Clinton letter go up for auction

0

A collection of items once owned or gifted by Monica Lewinsky, including a black negligee and a letter signed by former President Bill Clinton, is being auctioned online, Nate D. Sanders Auctions announced Monday.

The 32-item collection was submitted by Monica Lewinsky’s one-time lover Andy Bleiler to special prosecutor Kenneth Starr during his investigation of the former White House intern’s relationship with Bill Clinton, said Laura Yntema, the auction manager.

Details of Monica Lewinsky’s affair with Andy Bleiler surfaced amid the probe that led to Bill Clinton’s 1998 impeachment by the House of Representatives on perjury and obstruction of justice charges.

President Bill Clinton was later acquitted by the U.S. Senate.

Andy Bleiler, Monica Lewinsky’s former high school drama teacher, was married at the time of his five-year affair with the San Francisco native, Laura Yntema said.

It is believed Monica Lewinsky was friendly with the Bleilers in the 1990s, Laura Yntema added.

According to the lot description, the collection includes:

  • a black floor-length negligee by City Culture
  • three sealed and slightly crushed boxes of presidential M&Ms
  • handwritten notes and greeting cards signed by Monica Lewinsky
  • a letter typed on White House stationary signed by Bill Clinton
  • several articles of casual clothing Monica Lewinsky gave to Andy Bleiler’s wife, Kate Nason

Monica Lewinsky’s infamous “blue dress” is not among the items listed for sale.

The lot is expected to nab between $25,000 and $50,000 when bidding concludes Thursday, Laura Yntema said.

Laura Yntema said she was not sure why the items were used as evidence during Kenneth Starr’s investigation into Bill Clinton’s misconduct.

Monica Lewinsky, 39, has largely avoided the media limelight after dominating tabloid headlines and late-night talk show jokes throughout the late 1990s.
