One of my favorite Vincent Price movies was not even a horror movie, it was called The Baron of Arizona.
It was based on a true character named James Addison Reavis. He was a St. Louis realtor, forger, swindler who almost ended up owning a big chunk of Arizona.
Price played him in the movie. It's on YouTube, check it out when you get the chance.

One time I rented a DVD that had Vincent Price in a movie and they had a bunch of tidbits on the all the actors in it on the inside of the cover. They said that Vincent Price had a huge painting collection and that he remembered his very first painting he got. He said he had to steal money from a church collection box to buy it.
Another tidbit said that when he played the villain Egghead in the old Batman series, there was a scene in a room that was filled with thousands of eggs and Price began throwing them at everybody. Soon a huge egg fight started and after about 10 minutes the director asked if they were ready to quit and continue with the scene. Price replied, " No way, not with this arsenal " and the egg throwing continued for another 10 minutes.
