You are kind.
Great video
Thanks!
I didn’t realize Alan Garfield “Chief Lutz” passed away. Another great video Dave!
I looked around for his plaque and could not find. I told front office as I was leaving.
@@famousgraveswithdiamonddave hopefully it wasn’t stolen.
Been known to. Oswalds was. @@dano8203
George Barris also did a car for John Wayne too, but I have never seen it at all. If you ever saw “American Pickers”, Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz were able to buy the Dragula Car from him and they have it back at there place in Iowa. George Barris’ kids are trying to put a museum to their father but have been running into a lot of Difficulties in doing that. The location of his shop in Studio City had to be closed as could not afford to keep that place at all.
At Forest Lawn Glendale there are a lot of those artistic nude statues there, as are supposed to symbolic of life, even they are at a cemetery that represents death, so it’s to show life amongst the dead there. I learned it from Arthur Dark on RUclips from his series.
AHHHHHHH... Good info.
Great video. Did anyone you sound like Huell Howser?
A few times. Huell was a good guy and I watch a lot of his stuff. Thank you!
Not bad, but Lamont is still the gold standard for cemetery visits.
Thanks.
Those numerals embossed on the diminutive metal tags which are in turn affixed to the base of the depicted statuary is in reference to their identification numbers as found in the now long out-of-print "Forest Lawn Art Guide". This catalogue offers the same numbers to make the connection to the particular item along w/ the given title of the artwork, its creator, a brief description of the work and any purpose or meaning in regards to it.
Love it! It makes perfect sense and thanks for the info.
It's fantastic how the thinking that went into the cemetery construction is multi functional, dispels the notion the it's for morbid and sorrow. It's an art gallery, a park with picnic area , and movies I believe.
@@garycorbin2789 Very well kept too.
DD, did you film this in the fall? was wondering what grass looks like in California in the winter
Yep. Last week.
