Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Hollywood Knickerbocker Hotel" in English language version.
Four years later, William Frawley, best known as Fred Mertz on TV's "I Love Lucy," walked out of the hotel's bar--where he always ordered a walnut with his drink--and dropped dead on the sidewalk. Rassmusen's account, however, appears to be based on a press release containing incorrect information generated by the short-lived All-Star Cafe that once occupied a part of the hotel. By 1966, when Frawley died, the Knickerbocker had become something of a dump.
