William Holden Has Valuable Collection ■* Holden Is No. 1 Hollywood Tourist HOLLYWOOD (UP) — William Holden, movietown's No. 1 tourist, is one actor who's made a second profession of lugging home "souvenirs” —a valuable collection of antique sculpture. Holden has chalked up seven long trips overseas, and just finished his second trip around the world. From these journeys he’s brought back sculpture, pots, masks and other art objects, and now ranks among the top art collectors of Hollywood. Holden concentrates on ancient sculpture. And while most other collectors buy their art objects at U.S. art galleries, the actor brings his home from his travels, "and that’s part of the excitement” Concentrates On Figures "One has to yave some degree of junk man in his blood to be willing to litter up his property," Holden confessed today as he led a tour of his possessions. "Billy Wilder influenced me to begin my collection. I decided the coming appreciation of art will be in figures, not paintings, because modern homes are good settings for sculpture. You can’t hang paintings on glass.” 1 Holden's collection fills both his home and his dressing room-office at Paramount Studio. In his home is a 2,500-year-old Egyptian head, a Buddha head from Siam and pottery from ancient Greece. At first, he says, his children groaned at his purchases “but now they are starting to collect, too.” His dressing room boasts primitive sculpture from the South Sea Islands, an old Korean sundial, pre-Columbian figures from Mexico, 150-year-old Japanese puppets and countless other objects. Moat Recent Purchase During our tour his secretary unpacked his most recent purchase, 850 b.c. Greek wine jugs. They were purchased on his round-the-world trip that began when he went to Ceylon to star in “The Bridge On The River Kwai” for independent producer Sam Spiegel " • -

thinks she knows why. “The trouble is,” she said, “TV is not a place for beginners. It’s no place to get experience. There's just too much to learn. Start With Bands “Most of the big singers of today started with bands, traveled on the road, got their experience the hard way. And I'd advise any kid today who wanted to become a singer to get that kind of work in — even if it means singing in joints. ”
