A “blood-stained” shirt worn by the late actor Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain is expected to fetch up to 20,000 dollars (£16,000) at auction next month.

The Western-style shirt, which has patches of fake blood on it, featured in a fight scene with Heath’s co-star Jake Gyllenhaal in Ang Lee’s Oscar-winning 2005 film.

It is being sold for the first time as part of a collection of shirts from the movie, which starred Heath and Jake as two cowboys who embark on a secret gay affair.

Heath died in 2008 from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs at the age of 28.

The Hollywood Legends sale, hosted by Julien’s Auctions, will feature a range of rare movie memorabilia including a bra owned by Marilyn Monroe, a dinner suit worn by Daniel Craig as James Bond and one of Steve McQueen’s motorcycles.
