Happenstance? 25 years ago, I went 'x-mas shopping', wearing a ruffled white blouse and a red coat.....At my first 'stop'....there, leaning against an old flour-sifting cabinet, in Atlanta's trashiest Antiques Store....the kind of store that sells old car mufflers, drill-presses and machine parts, was this 1904 Jules Cheret poster of Arlette Dorgere....The 'dealer' was glad to see it 'go'.....to make room for a 'Shell Motor Oil' poster! "No accounting for tastes." the dealer commented, as he eagerly moved the Shell Oil poster into place against the sifting cabinet!.....I was thinking exactly the same thing!
