Highly regarded American songwriter (1885–1945) best known for the musical Showboat and for such standards as “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.” Personal check, 8.25 x 3, filled out and signed by Kern, “Jerome D. Kern,” payable to acclaimed lyricist Ira Gershwin for $250.00, September 11, 1939. Check is endorsed on reverse by Gershwin and two others. In very good condition, with four vertical folds, one through the “m” in signature, expected cancellation holes which affect the top of the “J,” scattered wrinkling, a small hole through the payee’s name, a pencil notation to the left side, and some brushing to Gershwin’s endorsement on the reverse.
