iconic formby uke for sale
John Walley has decided to sell George Formby’s ‘When I”m
Cleaning Windows Uke’ from the film “Keep Your Seats
Please”.
This iconic instrument has been in John’s possession since
1961.
John explains ‘I’m 84 years old next birthday and have no one
to leave it to and I don’t want Gill to be burdened with the
sale.
I’m hoping that a genuine Formby fan will eventually buy it.
Last year it was given an auction estimate of £15,000 by
Hansons but they said it could go higher because of the
extra-ordinary provenance.’
Please note, that the price is not set in stone and any
sensible offer will be considered.
John Walley’s Windows uke available!
PLEASE NOTE, THIS INSTRUMENT IS
NOW SOLD. PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ANY
FURTHER OFFERS.
