1925: THE VIQUESNEY BUILDING
|
With the fantastic success of his "Imp-O-Luck", Viquesney financed the construction of an office/apartment complex in downtown Spencer, Indiana, and later, in 1928, the Tivoli Theatre. The building had a ten-foot electrified statue of the "Imp" on the roof; part of the base is visible in the upper left.
Viquesney maintained his art studio in this building. In 1938 he moved it to another location in town. At right is an interior shot of an apartment in the Viquesney Building. |
