It is possible to remain still while that happens, but only if you are made of wood...

...rich and famous. Who, after all, wouldn't want to see J.P. Morgan's Cartier cologne holder, right, or William Randolph Hearst's buffalo-horn drinking cup, above? Come March, the bric-a-brac exhibit will shift from the first half of the 20th century to the latter, featuring, among other items, Elvis' most utilitarian bling--his gold Dunhill lighter...
