Colleen Moore shows two handsful of her library. The books are an inch square and writfen by famous authors. Below is the prince's bedroom, with its solid gold furniture
or until one million dollars has been realized for unfortunate kiddies.
That is Colleen's idea of not only making her "dream come true," but to bring hope and happiness to many suffering children.
Constructed of aluminum and copper with fantastic angles and sky-sweeping turrets and steeples, no semblance of architectural convention is found in this abode of little people. Resting on a summit of a rugged precipice, the castle, which is nine feet wide and nine feet long, rises fourteen feet into the air and weighs approximately 6,000 pounds.
The house, excepting rivets, contains more than 200,000 individual pieces. It is a mechanical marvel of intricacy and practicability.
Among them, the house boasts a solid gold cathedral organ fifteen inches high. The organ actually plays by means of an electrical system via remote control.
A $60,000 diamond bracelet of Colleen's was broken up and made into a chandelier. This is lighted by the world's smallest electric bulbs, each being the size of a grain of wheat, and embedded in sockets with the circumference of pinheads. The chandelier is golden and strung with glittering, pear-shaped diamonds. [ please turn to page 101 ]
