It houses a \u201cmulti-million dollar collection of fine art, kitsch, San Francisco memorabilia and countless historic chotchkies,\u201d Pritikin said.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3327_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nBob Pritikin<\/p>\n<p>Inside the mansion, after ascending the grand staircase, visitors are treated to a gallery of fine art including an original J.M.W. Turner oil painting, an exact replica of Rembrandt\u2019s Nightwatch, a collection of monumental works of the late San Francisco sculptor Beniamino Bufano, and an amusing oil portrait of Prince Phillip to which the Prince once snarled: \u201cI bloody well wouldn\u2019t hang it on the walls of Buckingham Palace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3346_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nRembrandt\u2019s Nightwatch and a Bufano sculpture.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3356_std.jpg\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" \/><br \/>\n&#8220;We are not amused!&#8221;<br \/>\nPortrait of Prince Phillip.<\/p>\n<p>The mansion also features a few shockers including an Adolf Hitler gallery containing the Fuhrer\u2019s personal world globe and his Swastika armband acquired by two American soldiers at the end of World War II. The authenticated items \u201care a chilling reminder of the horrendous crimes committed by the most heinous of history\u2019s despots,\u201d Pritikin remarked. The Hitler gallery appropriately displays a large disclaimer that reads: \u201cMay the bastard rot in hell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In another room, perhaps the most shocking of all, is a working electric chair, complete with a death-row inmate dummy that sizzles and shakes at the flip of the executioner\u2019s switch.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3424_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nPritikin&#8217;s replica death row electric chair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it would be nice to share this hodgepodge of history with the general community and besides I\u2019ll enjoy a few afternoon visitors,\u201d Pritikin, the former hotelier, author and showman quipped.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3331_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nBob Pritikin<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3441_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nThe largest room in the mansion features sculptures, oil paintings,<br \/>\nnickknacks and a grand piano.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3362_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3367_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nPritikin&#8217;s indoor pool with retractable roof.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3389_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nThe foyer.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3438_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3391_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nAnimated clock, formerly the entrance attraction to FAO Schwartz.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3405_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3383_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nAdolf Hitler&#8217;s swastika armband.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3382_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3417_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"339\" \/><br \/>\nPortrait of Carol Channing.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3422_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nNorth Beach Restaurant Moose Sign.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3423_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nThe dungeon where all the magic happens.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3428_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/bob_pritikin_090929\/_w2w3435_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/pritikin_museum.jpg\" alt=\"pritikin_museum.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nThe Pritikin Mansion at Dusk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world&#8217;s largest portrait mural by artist Guy Colwell will be officially unveiled Sunday at the Pritikin Mansion in San Francisco.
