Lot 51 Las Vegas Casino Souveniers Lot 52 Louis Vuitton Ashtray & Lighters

Mom literally "opened" Las Vegas back in 1946 when she was on the bill for the Grand Opening of the Flamingo. In subsequent years she performed there and visited often. This lot includes playing cards, ashtrays, dice, and hotel courtesy cards from her trips as well as a letter from the Flamingo offering her complimentary accomodations because of her role in opening the casino.

Mom was a smoker (which she regretted in later years). Here's a vintage ashtray and two Dunhill lighters and a Cartier lighter. The engraving "Not 'Everybody's' Just Yours" is a reference to a play she did called "Everybody's Girl" and the engraving "For My Matchless Husband" was for Dad. There are also two vintage matchbooks from Ciro's in Hollywood.

Lot 55 Bar Items Lot 56 Cooking Collection: Apron & Recipes

My parents were prolific entertainers. Our last name was GUY, so they had "Guy's Saloon" painted on the bar windows and had all kinds of personalized barware. The drink coasters say, "Have One On The Guys," there are napkins that say, "Rose Marie," beer mugs that say, "Guy's Saloon," and aluminum coasters engraved with "The Guys." Would be great for a "guy's bar" or a guy's man cave!

Mom wouldn't brag about her acting, singing or comedy, but she had no qualms about bragging about her cooking and was known among her friends as an excellent cook. Here's an apron she wore often that says, "Italian Heartburn by Rose Marie" and a big batch of her favorite handwritten recipes. You'll also get a photo of her wearing the apron from a dinner where Jonathan Winters was a guest.

Lot 57 Beaded Evening Bags

Lot 58 BULLSHIT Clutch and Change Purses

Mom had gorgeous beaded evening bags from all over the world that she carried to all kinds of personal appearances and Hollywood functions. Here are five that she carried often and are in excellent condition.

Click to enlargeClick to enlargeClick to enlarge

After all she was a comedienne, so probably shouldn't be surprising that she'd have bags with "bullshit" printed all over them.

Lot 59 Broadtail Coat Lot 60 Autographed Scripts

This is a gorgeous black broadtail double breasted swing coat that Mom had monogrammed inside that says "Noopy's Mother." I am pretty positive that she wore this on the Season 3 Christmas episode of The Doris Day Show (Episode 15) and she may have also worn it on The Mike Douglas Show. She loved this coat and consequently wore it many times.

Click to enlargeClick to enlargeClick to enlargeClick to enlargeClick to enlarge

Mom did a musical short with Hugh O'Brian, Abbe Lane and Scatman Crothers in 1953 called Surprising Suzie. She also did a play called Lunatics and Lovers with Zero Mostel. She autographed the covers for both of those scripts.

Lot 61 Just Off Broadway Autographed Script Lot 62 Dinah Shore and Vaudeville Scripts

Back in 1955, long before she was filming The Dick Van Dyke Show on the Desilu Lot, Mom made a pilot for Desilu called Just Off Broadway (that didn't get picked up). It was originally called Girls and Greasepaint. This is an early version of the script which she autographed and contains her annotations. You'll notice on the front it says, "Ex Child Star" which is often how she reffered to herself..

Click to enlarge

Mom had most of her scripts bound or at least had personalized binders for them. Here's two scripts in binders, one of which she autographed. One is from The Dinah Shore Show where she and I actually performed (sang and danced) together. We only did it once. The other is from a TV special called Vaudeville.

Lot 63 Mink Coat Lot 64 Mink Jacket and Vest

Mom referred to herself as a furaholic before we all realized how bad that really was. This was a mink she bought when she was doing Call Me Madam (which she absolutely loved doing). She wore it a lot, including on the set of You Don't Say, a gameshow she did in 1963 with Tom Kennedy and Mike Connors at Cyprus Gardens in Florida.

Click to enlargeClick to enlargeClick to enlargeClick to enlarge

Two of Mom's furs. This little white mink jacket, was actually part of her wardrobe for Call Me Madam that she wore on stage. That's her in her dressing room, modeling it. The other mink is a unique tunic, that has a brown collar and belt and zips up the side. She's pictured wearing it with Sammy Davis, Jr. and Sidney Poitier.

Lot 67 Dick Van Dyke Show First Episode Script

Lot 68 Dick Van Dyke Show Worn Large Bow

Two early versions of the first script of The Dick Van Dyke Show called "The Sick Boy and the Sitter"

Click to enlarge

Twice on The Dick Van Dyke Show, Mom wore an oversized bow on top of her head instead of her usual smaller black bow at her left temple. They made her two copies of this large, black organza bow with velvet center, most likely because she does some serious physical comedy while wearing it in one of the episodes. You can see it in Season 4 Episode 15 "The Impractical Joke" and Season 4 Episode 17 "Stacey Petrie Part I." She also wore it for a photo shoot which is pictured below. She only had two of these. One is gone. This is the last one.

Lot 71 Comedy & Tragedy Mask Brooches worn on The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Doris Day Show, Sam Levinson Show, The Big Beat

Mom had a real love for the theatre comedy and tragedy masks. My dad gifted her with a beautiful large pendant necklace that she often wore which featured the masks.

Lot 97 14K Gold Charm Bracelet Lot 98 Badges

Most of Mom's charms were gifts given to her by friends or people she worked with on different shows. Every charm told a story and she loved wearing them. This bracelet was one of her early ones and includes a teapot - she was a die-hard tea drinker; an NBC microphone - she started as a child star with her own radio show on NBC and Dad worked in their orchestra; a flamingo - because she opened The Flamingo in Vegas; a record - for her music; and some others that Dad obviously gave to her. All of her charms were always very personal, including this one.

Mom was always being made an honorary something or other given the badges to go with it. Here's a few.

Lot 99 14K Gold Large Charm Bracelet Lot 100 Leather Belt

This bracelet has some really special charms on it. Two of them relate to the Broadway musical she did with Phil Silvers called Top Banana - the banana bunch and the record which is engraved with the title of one of the songs from the show. The trumpet is because that was the instrument my dad played. The C/P key was from the Chez Paree in Chicago who made her a life member because she often performed there back when she was known as Miss Rose Marie. There's a few birthday related charms, her zodiac sign, and even one I gave her.

Click to enlargeClick to enlarge

Like I've said before, if she could have it personalized or monogrammed, it was. Since I ride and show western horses, Mom had to have a western belt, so I had it made for her.

Lot 101 Clocks Lot 102 Charm Necklace

Mom had a thing about clocks and watches. Time was really important to her - being on time, and timing!  The red travel clock has R.M.G. embossed on it and the others are all high-quality good name brand clock. The Tiffany Travel Clock was a gift from Rosemary Clooney.

Lot 103 Bracelet Lot 104 Gypsy Rose Lee Hall Tree

A bracelet that mimics a belt with Mom's name.

Mom got this antique hall tree, that originally belonged to Gypsy Rose Lee, from her good friend Jane Withers, who I believe purchased it at auction. It was in Mom's living room, and served as part of the background for the last interview Mom ever did on camera. It comes with authentication that it belonged to Gypsy Rose Lee.

Lot 105 Doris Day Autographed Photo Lot 106 John Wayne Gifted Mug

For Mom's 90th birthday Doris Day sent her beautiful flowers, but also this framed photo of the two of them on the set of her show which she inscribed to Mom. Mom loved it because up till that time, she had nothing on her "wall of fame" from Dor.

Lot 109 Celebrity Bar Items Lot 110 Mickey Mouse Award

This collection is distinctive with "one of a kind" items from Mom's bar. There's the very rare mug that features the caricature that Dick Van Dyke drew of her; the glasses that say "Rose Marie - Sex Symbol for Senior Citizens," a couple of Mike Douglas glasses, a Jerry Lewis mug (he was very good friends with my parents), and Morry's misspelled mug (my parents had what they called a three-timers club - if you'd been to the house three times, you got your own personalized mug that hung on the shelves in the bar). Also included in here is coaster that says "The Crosbys" and a matchbook that says "Dixie & Bing." My dad played first trumpet for Bing on his radio show.

In 1989 we all flew to Disney for a special week where Mom and Morey and a handful of other celebrities were honored at the new MGM Studios Theme Park (George Burns, Annette Funicello, Edie Adams, Alan Young, Imogene Coca, Steve Allen, Jayne Meadows). Mike Eisner presented these rare porcelain statues of Mickey to the stars. In Mom's files from that trip, I found this handwritten thank you letter she drafted for her secretary to type and send to Mr. Eisner thanking him.
