The Pugliese Pop Culture Collection
The Pugliese Collection may well be the finest collection focusing on
20th Century pop culture ever privately assembled. Approximately eight
hundred and fifty of the most extraordinary objects imaginable from the
worlds of motion pictures, popular music, magic, television and politics
were gathered over several decades by Anthony Pugliese, a man who might
well be described as a true visionary. Indeed, Mr. Pugliese is sharing
his wonderful Collection with the rest of the world as he shifts his interests
towards the creation of Destiny, the nation's largest eco-sustainable
community currently being sensitively created in central Florida. A portion
of the proceeds from the remarkable event are earmarked for the Audubon
Society, long known for its important environmental work.
