Hugh Hefner’s personal Solid Gold Money Clip! 14kt Gold, given to him by Sybil Brand in 1973, wife of Harry Brand. Harry was head of publicity for 20th Century Fox (1935-82) and “mastermind who made Shirley Temple the most famous child star in history, Betty Grable a GI Joe pinup girl and Marilyn Monroe a sex goddess.” Sybil Brand was an important philanthropist and activist, the first women’s prison in LA was named after her “The Sybil Brand Institute” because of her influence improving women’s prisons, until it was destroyed in the 1994 earth quake! Truly a remarkable piece of history from an American Icon!
