Sammy Davis Jr.’s little black book hits the auction block

For sale: Sammy Davis Jr.’s little black address book, to the highest bidder.

The deceased megastar’s private black book reads like a who’s who of superstars — from Sidney Poitier to Michael Jackson to Bjorn Borg, the New York Daily News reported. Barbara Streisand and Clint Eastwood are featured, too.

Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who allegedly had a relationship with Davis’s wife, Altovise, is also in the book, the Daily News reported.

Bidding starts at $4,000, from the Los-Angeles based Nate D. Sanders auction house.
