Jerry Lewis Personal Whistle & Mini Hofner Harmonica COA 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.

Jerry Lewis’ lips were wrapped around this silver whistle.  Jerry used this whistle anytime he needed help from Penny, his assistance.  “Help, Patti, SOS, Joey, Taxi, and Louie.” is engraved on one side of the whistle and “JL” is engraved on the other.  This whistle is so personal and so appropriate for the relationship between Jerry & Penny.  There is also a Star of David on the top of the whistle as he referred to himself as Super Jew.

Hofner Mini Harmonica was played by the CLOWN, Jerry Lewis.  I can see many scenes that Lewis could have created with this MINI HOFNER. Both pieces are super rare and super fun and you KNOW that is owned and used by Jerry.
