Purpose of use |
Further illustration of the character, who never appeared without them. The photo of the character's glasses is an opportunity to see the prop close up. While one is able to see Kovacs wearing the glasses while performing the character, there is no opportunity to see the glasses as well while viewing a Kovacs video. Kovacs did not perform this character on every one of his television shows; since he died in 1962, there was little opportunity to see what the glasses looked like in color. Upon the death of Ernie Kovacs, his wife, Edie Adams, inherited them along with his other personal and professional effects. Adams kept all of Kovacs' professional items until her death. When her estate offered them at auction, it was the first and probably only opportunity to see the glasses and other performance-related items which one belonged to Kovacs. |
Replaceable? |

Other information |
