The fine art and collectables sale will feature other items including a rare programme for a match between Aston Villa and Manchester City.
The 1908 fixture was played in Swadlincote to raise money for the Rawdon Colliery Disaster Fund following the pit tragedy the previous year.
There will also be autographs going under the hammer, including signatures from The Rolling Stones from 1963.
The full catalogue will be available online a week before the sale at www.richardwinterton.co.uk/auction-dates.
