Jerry Lewis - Nightclub Act (1 of 3)

[1PamGordon]

At the beginning of the act there is a director's card that says February 2, 1960.

What year is this from?

@seajayaway I'm going to guess 1960? From the brief shot of the desk at the beginning, I know that's from "The Bellboy", which Jerry made in 1960. I also know that he was performing at the hotel while he was shooting the movie there, so they probably filmed those performances. This is likely from one of those shows.

What year was this please? I don't understand why or how anyone would post a great vintage clip like this without posting the year it was made.

Jerry was considered the fastest draw of all the Hollywood stars. Sammy Davis was no. 2
