None like him and never will be
From the Honeymooners to the Jackie Gleason show, smokey and the bandit, movies too numerous to mention . He is surely missed . Thanks for all the great times 😘 Jackie

I feel they need to turn it into a museum instead of selling it. This way, everything can be preserved to honor Mr. Gleason, and fans can always tour the home as he left it ♥️

In the early 80s my friend Tricia lived next door to Mr Gleason @ Inverrary. I had the pleasure of stepping inside that billiard room. It has definitely been cleaned up. The walls and the curtains were heavy yellow with nicotine stain and the smell of smoke. And I vividly recall this very large floor stand ashtray piled overflowingly high with butts. All that aside Mr. Gleason was truly kind and kept asking "What are you kids up to today?" He would wave across the fence when he saw us out in the pool. Shows how much Lauderhill went in the ghetto toilet. Those homes were a million plus back in the 80s.

Speaking of bars: For awhile, Jackie Gleason had his own five car railroad train called "The Jackie Gleason Special" that ran cross country for ten days promoting his variety show. Somebody asked him, "Which car is the bar car?" He answered, "EVERY car is the bar car."

That price seems insane. Lemme buy this right now!

I would buy that house in 2 seconds for 299K. Are you kidding me? But they need to include the George Dickel.

[Lightnin]

Beautiful home, hope it will be preserved well..

In a million years - why the hell would you get rid of the billiard

[austinteutsch]

Today, that home is easily worth $5 million, especially with all his artifacts.

He also lived in the Country Club of Miami, prior to the move to Broward!

Jackie Gleason had owned a succession of at least several limousines, at least one or two others also painted maroon with a grey top. A very nice looking one was a 1978 Lincoln Continental Limo. A gentleman who later owned it took it to various car shows including the large Pismo Beach, CA car show for a number of years where I saw it many times. As a Gleason fan myself, we chatted a lot. He got to the point of wanting to sell it and we discussed it. But I just couldn't justify buying another car. Some years later, his nephew was trying to sell it and it appeared on the "Pawn Stars" TV show. Danny Koker (Count's Kustoms) came over to inspect the car for Rick Harrison. While the car looked good in general, it had many little rust and deterioration issues and Danny suggested Rick pass on the car which surprised everybody, including Danny himself. Then fairly recently a "Collectors Call" TV show featured a Honeymooners collector. He had seen the Pawn Stars show, contacted the seller, and bought that very car. So, it is now with a fervent Honeymooners and Jackie Gleason fan which is probably a pretty good home for it.

I heard that in the 50's he had his own rail car so he could commute N.Y. to Fla. in extreme comfort. Discrete ladies included.
