Great Lester's Swazzle?


When I sent Jay Johnson one of my collectible "Dummy Dollar" coins, he in return sent me "the only Swazzle the Great Lester ever used...used only a couple times for demonstrations." I don't doubt that this is what Jay was told. However, the Swazzle has been taped to a Loftus card with printed instructions for using the "Swiss Warbler" carrying a 1998 date which is long after Harry Lester's death. So whether this Swazzle is actually the one the Great Lester used, or is like the one he used - I'm not certain. But it makes for interesting conversation and supposition. (I did check with Loftus Company. They no longer sell this item which they called a "Swiss Warbler Bird Call".)
