Well, mercy buckets for the mention. <br /><br />First let me say further, I'm a little perplexed by this purchase, because I happen to know there are some Trousdale STUNNERS on/about to come on the market. I mean, the best of the best. One's already being shopped quietly in the $12.9 million range, but perhaps the John-Furnishes were bargain hunting? EJ's no stranger to the occasional cash flow problem, though I haven't heard of any in a while. And YES to several of the posters above, the first thing the new property needs is a perimeter fence/wall and gates. I have faith the eventual decor will be fun.<br /><br />Now, as to the release date of "Over The Top", the publisher is shooting for Spring 2013 but I'm pushing them to move it up so it's out in time for Modernism Week In Feb 2013. What MidCent Modernist like myself WOULDN'T want to be the Toast of Palm Springs!<br /><br />For those of Mama's chirren unfamiliar with my little tome on Trousdale Estates' architectural histoire marveleuse, I hope Mama won't be affronted by a little pimpin':<br /><br />You can get a taste at our website: www.Trousdale-OverTheTop.com<br /><br />...or a relative banquet at our FaceBook page -- full of Trousdale news and other morsels that won't fit into the book: http://www.facebook.com/pages/OVER-THE-TOP-the-Architectural-History-of-Trousdale-Estates-Beverly-Hills/325296184579<br /><br />And thanks again!Carla Ridgenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-43704592307563841562012-03-07T08:53:06.656-08:002012-03-07T08:53:06.656-08:007:13 Good point..I had not thought about that.
