PRYOR AUCTION ON EBAY ENDS SOON

Entertainment memorabilia buffs only have a few hours left to take a bite at Richard Pryor spare tooth.

Pryor’s widow is hawking his dental plate to raise money for their animal charity, but bidding on the eBay auction has been slow.

More than 6 ½ days passed without a bid in the sale that’ll ends Tueday at 12:06 a.m. New York time.

Wife Jennifer Lee Pryor remained confident a fan will step up to buy a piece of the comic’s smile.

The widow insists her husband would have condoned the oddball auction.

“It’s very macabre, but I promise Richard would have liked it,” Jennifer Lee Pryor told The Post.

“I didn’t really wrestle with this so much. Richard was odd duck and loved the unusual. He would have been like ‘Bitch, go sell it!'”

Proceeds are set to go to “Pryor’s Planet,” which saves stray Los Angeles dogs from euthanasia.

Pryor died on Dec. 10, 2005, after suffering a heart attack at his San Fernando Valley home.

For years, he’d worn a dental plate to hold in place an artificial tooth in the front of his mouth.

Pryor famously went without that dental plate in a 1992 interview with Jane Pauley, stunning viewers who saw a huge hole in the comic’s smile, Jennifer Pryor said.

“I was horrified by it, I thought he looked like a homeless man,” she recalled.

Jennifer Pryor said she came up with the oddball auction idea after seeing actor William Shatner hawk his kidney stones in an online auction that raised $25,000 for charity.

The unusual auction brought a smile from Los Angeles’ top animal cop.

“It’s a very funny way to address a very serious issue and goal [to end animal euthanasia],” said Ed Boks, general manager of L.A. Animal Services.

Boks, former director of New York City’s Animal Care & Control, said he believes Richard Pryor would have approved.

“I grew up on Richard Pryor’s comedy and he was one of my heroes,” Boks said. “It’s been great seeing another side of Richard Pryor, that this was a deeply compassionate man who really understood the human-animal bond.”
