    " untalented ,like I am" Mr. Price, sir you were an actor for the ages, a gourmet on par with Wolfgang Punk, an amazing lecturer in multiple subjects, an authority on art collecting and a published author. Your humility and self-awareness do you credit surely but that said, Mr. Price i think i speak for anyone familiar with your work when i say this: Mr.Price, if you don't have talent, thaen I'm not sure talent exists to begin with, because any definition of talent that doesn't somehow overlap with your many notorious and masterful skills is an incoherent nonsense!

    He was a wonderful human being. I met him in 1981 at the Buena Park Wax Museum. I was a small time, third rate weekly reporter, with pretensions for the LA Times. I am now 61, so broke I can only afford TH-cam. Art is for everyone--that I can afford...

      You went old school by referencing the old Movieland Wax Museum. Sadly it closed in 2005. I believe they finally took down the old sign that was standing for years.

    My dad sold this stuff for Sears back in the 60s. He collected allot too. My mother still has many works that dad bought.

    I thought that it was incredible that you could buy fine art at Sears. Vincent Price was a true connoisseur. I was not around then, but I can truly appreciate this- if I was, I would definitely had invested. I was a very well known artist, until someone broke into my home, and took every piece, and all of the digital backups, so nothing existed after that. Obviously, people had some originals, but as a photographer, I lost over 40,000 images, all back up, cameras, etc. Also, my art supplies of 20 years investment, paintings, sculpture, jewelry that I had made. The police had zero interest in finding anything, or who had done this. I had moved in the day before, so someone had ripped the entire door and frame off of the house and taken all boxes. Nothing returned. I chose to move somewhere isolated to paint and write, so no witnesses.

    Nothing nicer than Vincent Price talking about fine art for nearly 18 minutes. Here is a list of the art & artists shown for those curious:
    - Chiryū-juku, Hiroshige
    - Unsure?
    - Heinrich Kley
    - Franco Gentilini
    - Gustav Likan
    - Désiré Dihau, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec
    - The Young Entomologist (couldn't find the artist)
    - Caprichos No. 39, Francisco Goya
    - Unknown
    - Louis Legrand
    - Uknown
    - The Angel Appearing to the Shepherds, Rembrandt van Rijn
    - Karl Zerbe
    I tried to find the name of the art piece shown but for some I wasn't able to so I only put the artist so as to not confuse

    I swear Vincent Price could have read a phone book for 2 hours and held people's interest. We truly don't have his like any more.

      True. I’ve been a fan of him for quite some time now.

    I like this video, I thought it was very enlightening, and a good display of art, and informative.

    Sears no longer has the fine arts collection. I met Vincent Price in 1967. He liked my artwork and said I had a great potential! He said that I was Artist, not just an artist, my work astounds! I had an ability and talent with the human landscape! Then on the set of Thriller I met him again! I was the zombie that came crashing out of the floor. hollering!

    Wow! I'll bet all of the fine art collectors started going to Sears to get the best paintings!

      Joe Postove Well Sears was a different beast back then. You wanted to shop there (or order from their catalog if you didn't have one to go to).

    • @MrJoeybabe25
      @MrJoeybabe25 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Christopher Sobieniak Oh I know, Christopher. But fine art?

    • @ChristopherSobieniak
      @ChristopherSobieniak 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Joe Postove It was a different mindset.

    • @ChristopherSobieniak
      @ChristopherSobieniak 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Joe Postove Well, many places had lunch counters or restaurants attached. I loved going to them.

    • @MrJoeybabe25
      @MrJoeybabe25 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Christopher Sobieniak True...but gas stations used to stink lots more than they do now. It was the dirty mechanics.

      Long gone man, I remember a few years ago I went to sears with my mom a bunch of times when they were on clearance because they were closing down and I remember how huge the store was, I think this was 7 years ago to Jesus man

    Too bad all the art contained the souls of the damned. The pieces were nice and affordable but the screams at midnight were unbearable!
