Unreferenced material edit
The following material has been part of the article since it was introduced, and frankly, it sounds like blatant nonsense. Removed from the article and placed here for discussion and/or archival:
- At the time of his death in 1989, the inventor's mansion in Old Westbury, New York was home to a collection that included two cathedral-size buildings on his property to display his collection of religious stained glass windows and even commissioned pieces displaying the likenesses of Marilyn Monroe and Albert Einstein. Middlemark was also an animal enthusiast, as his lifetime hobbies included Belmont-winning race horses, nine miniature horses (Middlemark is credited with the introduction of the miniature horses and miniature donkeys into the United States, bringing them in from Argentina), and even a chimpanzee named "Josie" who lived in an oversized cage in the basement of Middlemark’s house and was known to answer the front door of his home and got soused [clarification needed] at parties.
