A black silk satin butterfly bowtie owned by Frank Sinatra. The bowtie has a label that reads "Imported silk by Serrano Los Angeles. The bow tie was acquired directly from Sinatra’s personal costumer and longtime friend, Michael Castellano. Castellano began working with the entertainer in 1976 after replacing Sinatra’s previous personal aide, Eddie Fitzsimmons. Castellano quickly became Sinatra’s “right hand man” and performed numerous duties for Sinatra while maintaining his stage and personal wardrobe collection. Castellano received these items as a personal gift from Sinatra prior to leaving his service in 1981. He has retained the items in his possession since that time. Sinatra is seen performing in a similar tie. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by Castellano. Categories: Frank Sinatra
