New owners discovered the hoard during a clear out of the property in Keighley, West Yorks.
Peter — the 7ft 3in actor who played Wookiee warrior “Chewie” in five Star Wars films — moved to the US in 2000.
He died in Texas in 2019 aged 74.
He starred from the 1977 original to 2015’s The Force Awakens.
Twenty-one lots will be auctioned later this month with estimates from £40 to £150.
Chris Depport, of Ryedale Auctioneers, said: “This will attract bids from all over the world.”
David Prowse, who was 6ft 6ins, was originally in the frame to play Chewbacca but chose instead to play Darth Vader.
