E.W. MARLAND'S BEDROOM & BATH

The oak paneled walls in Marland's English Tudor bedroom highlight this hand-carved oak fireplace which depicts two of Marland's favorite polo horses and the regalia that accompanies the sport of polo.

To the right of the fireplace is Mr. Marland's safe, the largest of the family's personal safes, and above that, a liquor cabinet. Both of these could be concealed behind this door. Remember, prohibition was in effect during the 1920s.

Mr. Marland's private bath includes a sauna, believed to be one of the first in the United States. Inside the shower, there are nine ceramic nozzles - he could stand in the center and get wet from every direction.
