FAMOUS IVORY TICKLER DISAPPEARS

So sick is the American economy, the Liberace Museum in the gambling joint of Las Vegas will close October 17, after 31 years . No doubt his ornate pianos , candelabra, fancy cars , jewellery , ruffles and costumes will end up being auctioned off . The museum also holds what has been described as the biggest rhinestone in the world. His Mom would be distraught if she were alive, as would Liberace , if she knew the shutter is about to come down on her showman son’s temple . Vegas is an economic basket case today with unfinished projects, large numbers of unsold houses, massive write downs in the value of property , empty supermarkets.
