Items to be auctioned include Simpson's Heisman trophy and his jersey

LOS ANGELES (CNN) -- Next week's auction to sell O.J. Simpson's Heisman Trophy and other sports memorabilia seized from him to satisfy a wrongful death suit will be conducted, in part, on the Internet.

Butterfield & Butterfield, a West Coast-based auction house, says it expects tens of thousands of online bidders to participate.

For buyers more interested in a traditional auction, the February 16 event in Los Angeles also will operate with bidders on the floor and others making offers by telephone.

Dozens of items are for sale. Some are sports-related, such as the Heisman, the trophy awarded to Simpson as the best college football player of 1968. Others are personal property.
