Liberace's Cadillac

One of the star attractions at the SSAFA Car Show at Ewen Fields on 19 Oct 2014 was this Cadillac, described as being once owned by the late American pianist Liberace.
All the articles I've found about this car say 'believed to have belonged to' Liberace, but I suppose there's no reason to doubt that it's the genuine article. Here's what the board in front of the car says:
Liberace's
Classic
1931 Roadster
Golfers Coupe
Hand Guilded in 28.6 carat Gold Leaf

Mr Showmanship
May 16th 1919 - February 14th 1987
This Rare Classic Car from Las Vegas
Now part of the.....
Mike & Shaun's Classics

It's a 1931 Cadillac Series 355A and the Wikipedia article about that car makes no mention of a 'Golfers Coupe', although there was apparently a 2-door Club Coupe.
