Vincent Price on Collecting

Vincent Price was an actor, connoisseur, raconteur, and art collector. He also introduced Mystery! on PBS from 1981 to 1985, earning him a beloved place in the the world of Edward Gorey.  Here is an interesting half hour interview that was taped on April 24, 1974 in which he expounds on art collecting at length.

Mr. Price certainly was a unique gentleman...I also found it interesting that this is the era where everyone smoked, even while being interviewed for PBS!
