I saved this tag from some article of clothing I bought back in the 80's or so, as I recall:
And here is Rita in her hat, on a vintage playing card:
And another playing card with another pretty lady and her elaborate fan of feathers:

ReplyDeleteI too am a fan of the art deco ladies. You put together a great selection. I have said before that your MIL must have been a very interesting woman. Her photo is beautiful. Love T
ReplyDeleteYou must love Erte! I have several books of his illustrations. I was fascinated with him in the 80s, when art deco made a comeback.
ReplyDeleteYour mother-in-law's photo is precious!
