Colonel Sanders Signed Letter to Jerry Lewis COA JSA & Provenance Letter

This item is coming to you directly from the estate of Jerry Lewis’ Personal Assistant, Penny Rice.  For over 40 years, she tended to all of Jerry Lewis’ needs.  Finally, she severed ties with Jerry Lewis, and with that, she retained many of her and Jerry’s personal letters, audio tapes, jewelry, books, scripts, and photos.  These items have never been offered on the market but have been kept in the personal collection of Penny Rice for all these years.  Penny Rice passed away, and her daughter had a caretaker.  He helped Penny’s daughter move to Ohio, and she left all the Jerry Lewis Estate to the caretaker.

This is a signed typed letter from Colonel Harland Sanders to Jerry Lewis dated February 6, 1970.  The chicken man was thanking the funny man for a PEN that was given to him as a gift for Christmas.  The letter is on Kentucky Fried Chicken Letterhead and also has the date stamped on the back of the letter.   Interesting to peak back into time on how correspondance occured without text, facebook or twitter.  AHHH.

The word “FILE” was penned at the top of the letter by Penny-the assistant.
