<\/a><\/p>\nCecil’s office, looking toward the screening room area in the back<\/em><\/p>\n More shots of Cecil’s office\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Sorry for the blurriness. Still learning to wrangle my cellphone camera.<\/p>\n Supposedly, Cecil was quite fond of his wastebasket. He could simply lift his feet up, lay his boots across it, and when they hosed out the stables in the back, he could keep his boots clean.<\/p>\n As you progress toward the back, you see a middle room with lovely wall hangings that have been created to look like the fronts of famous Hollywood landmarks. I’ve posted some of them below.<\/p>\n Did I mention the gorgeous old makeup kit?<\/em><\/p>\n Here’s an old bottle of spirit gum, for adhering beards, moustaches, etc.<\/em><\/p>\n One of the displays was a tribute to the Garden Court Apartments (RIP). Their destruction was what first fired up historical preservationists in Hollywood. Included under glass is one of the old caryatids that used to decorate the exterior.<\/p>\n Garden Court caryatid and pictures of the building<\/em><\/p>\n In the very back, where the horses used to hang out, there are tons of antiques pertaining to old Hollywood. Old cameras, programs, playbills, posters, props, etc. Get a load of this stuff.<\/p>\n Old home screening camera<\/em><\/p>\n Old poster for Universal Studios (before it got Disney-fied)<\/em><\/p>\n Old menu for the Paramount Italian Kitchen<\/em><\/p>\n Price list for home kinetoscopes<\/em><\/p>\n Incredible old movie camera<\/em><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
