HISTORIC BED
GOES INTO RETIREMENT. A canopied, four-poster bed, on which at one time or another have reclined such famous film figures as Mary Pickford, Theda Bara and the late Rudolph Valentino, makes its farewell appearance in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s "The Hound of the Baskervilles.” Imported from England a quarter of a century ago for use in a Mary Pickford picture, the bed came into the possession of 20th Century-Fox studios some years ago. In “The Hound of the Baskervilles” it served as a couch for Richard Greene, who shares top billing with Basil Rathbone and Wendy Barrie in the filmisation of the famous Sherlock Holmes story.
