A snap of Heath Ledger, which he signed just a month before he died, has sold for £5,460 at auction – 13 times more than it was expected to.

The late actor was dressed as The Joker in the Batman movie Dark Knight in the photograph.

He signed it at the London screening of Bob Dylan’s biopic ‘I’m Not There’ – which he starred in, in December 2007.

Aussie star, Ledger, died on 28 January 2008 in New York, aged just 28.

The photo was only expected to sell for £400 when it went under the hammer with Ewbank’s auction house.

It was described as being in a “fine condition.”

The lot description read: “Signed colour photograph of Heath Ledger as ‘The Joker’ from the film The Dark Knight, signed in person at the Dec 2007 London showing of ‘I’m Not There’ starring Heath Ledger.
