Hey Steve, I've noticed a load of art around the showroom. Can you tell me more about it?

Yeah, sure! This is one of my most favorite industry photos: Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin back in about 1970. Really, back in the early days of Las Vegas and the first beginning of corporate jets.

This one here is super interesting. This one actually I got taken right off the wall of John F. Kennedy's house!

What?

Yeah, this one actually belonged to his mother, Unice. This one here was designed by the artist Hunt. He painted this picture for them, and I was in the house when they were doing an auction in the back of the house. I had actually got this one off the wall from the Kennedy house and bought it instead of buying it out of the auction.

That's crazy!

This one here I just got; I didn't even have a chance to hang it yet. They're actually a copy of the manuscript from Ayn Rand.

Who's Ayn Rand?

She's one of my favorite authors. She really writes about how capitalism is so much better than altruism. Really, really a fantastic author!

Wow, Steve, thanks for showing me around. That's some great stories! Which one piece is your favorite?

Probably the one: my family, of course.
