Put on your dancing shoes and get ready to boogie on down memory lane. This Saturday Palm Beach Modern Auctions will auction off Studio 54 club co-founder and New York night life impresario Steve Rubell's personal collection of art and memorabilia from the clubs heydays in the 1970s. The eclectic group of items, which has remained for the past 28 years at the apartment Rubell shared with fashion designer Bill Hamilton, consists of Studio 54 memorabilia and includes works by Andy Warhol, Peter Beard and Michael Vollbracht, as well as hundreds of paparazzi photographs of party going celebrities like Diana Ross, Frank Sinatra, Truman Capote and Liza Minnelli. The collection provides a rare and dazzling look into the fabulous stylemakers and decadent partying that was Studio 54.

I remember when I was in grade school, my older sister got the Studio 54 Dance RECORD! Makes me feel old! Fun photos though.
How cool! That reservation book would be so much fun to go through! I am STILL a disco fan:)
I was really trying to decipher the guest book...that was a crazy time...but they all look so happy.
I loved the Studio 54 movie! Great soundtrack!
I have a serious obsession with Studio 54. It looks like a trip! Love these pictures!
This is so fascinating! What I wouldn't give to have been a fly on the wall back then!

i love all the black and white photos....It would be fun to see how much everything is going for....
I was at the auction last Saturday and it was standing room only. Most of the photos went for three times the estimate, but it was a very long process.
I was also at Studio 54 in its heyday and this was a great glimpse back. Sorry I didn't save all my trash in boxes from those days.
I am going to do a follow up post on the prices things went for...www.empressoftheeye.blogspot.com
Even "Roller Rina" was there in her skates and disco wig! Fun rainy afternoon...

I have been surfing on-line more than three hours as of late, but I never discovered any interesting article

In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content material as you did, the web might be much more helpful than ever before.
