Jutka was Miss Hungary 1959, and she leaves behind a lifetime of treasures that she shared with her 2 husbands.
The first was Lenny Burtman, an atomic scientist for the US Military, pilot, cinematographer, fetish publisher, art collector and history enthusiast. Lenny is the one responsible for most of the items you see in this estate, he was an avid collector and lover of the beautiful and bizarre.
Her second husband was Kurt Niklas, who started Bistro Garden restaurant, which was sold to Wolfgang Puck and then became Spago.
Jutka and Lenny purchased their condo (the building where these contents are currently housed) brand new in the 1970's, a building that many celebrities called home, including Rita Hayworth. Most of the items from this estate come from the 1970's and 80's time frame.
