| Excerpt from DIRTY LAUNDRY |
 |
Wallace lived about four miles west of downtown in an
old building called The Gaylord. Nestled in the middle of
the Mid-Wilshire business district, The Gaylord would have
been called swanky back in its day, which from the look
of the building was probably during the Coolidge Administration.
Now, just echoes of its former glory remained-the high plaster
ceiling, cracked terrazzo floor tiles, and display cases
of yellowed memorabilia near the elevators.
