Pickfair Estate Auction Preview: Episode 1

Mary Pickford was never the damsel in distress. Instead she did plenty of saving. With a beauty and spunk not seen on screen before her, Pickford took the world by storm and Hollywood by the throat. For a span of nearly 20 years she was the most popular person in the world.
They were the Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes of early 1900s Hollywood. Now you can own one of more than 700 pieces of fine art, furnishings and jewelry that graced the home, dubbed Pickfair, owned by Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks.
This amazing two-day auction, conducted by Julien's Auctions, and broadcast live on Auction Network (auctionnetwork.com) will be held at the Beverly Hilton, Saturday, Nov. 22 and Sunday, Nov. 23, starting at 10am/8c both days.
Pickford was known as "America's Sweetheart" during Hollywood's Golden Age of silent films. Dinners there were legendary with guests including Charlie Chaplin, Albert Einstein, and F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Some of the storied and exotic items from Pickfair up for bid include rare artworks such as two oil-on-canvas still life paintings by Paul de Longpre and Philip Mercier.

She was such a strong smart beautiful & insanely talented woman. She was ahead of her time. If it wasn't for her the actresses of today wouldn't exist. I have so much respect for this amazing woman. She's the first icon & legend. RIP Mary Pickford

Enrique V Really the First Star! She actually built interest in Hollywood as it was just surrounded by Orange and Lemon groves just after Edison made filming possible with the electric light.
