KFC founder Colonel Harland Sanders’ “famous bow tie” and other related memorabilia are being offered at auction, according to reports. The items are associated with Sanders’ later role with the company after the brand’s sale. Sanders sells KFC in 1964 to a group of investors, but he continues to serve as a brand ambassador for the business. The auction listings describe the bow tie and additional “finger lickin’ goodies” as key lots tied to Sanders’ public image and connection to the Kentucky Fried Chicken brand. Details such as auction timing, viewing arrangements, and price estimates are not provided in the information supplied. The reporting from Belfast Telegraph and BreakingNews.ie focuses on the significance of the items and their link to Sanders’ post-sale involvement with KFC, presenting the auction as a chance to acquire well-known founder-related memorabilia. The coverage is consistent in noting the 1964 sale of KFC and Sanders’ continued ambassadorial role afterward.
