    OH! PLEASE ENLARGE 2 TIMES---Here is a pretty real photo card of what I think is a gypsy girl--The stamp was applied on the front (eeek!) and It is either France or Italy I believe.But card created in France, with gorgeous cursive writing on the back. I hope you like it! I love the colorful "stones"!! I'll try to get e better photo of those tomorrow.

      The poser is GLADYS MAXHANCE. So that does not sound like a Gypsy, nor would she be a "known" celebrity. or model--I erred!

      An Actress!! And in your beautiful book. Imagine that! And she looks to be well known . How nice of you to share the link. I am sooo happy I bought it.
      I too, just love the card. Not many have even looked at it here--But that is alright--You and I know it is an important piece of French Theatre history
      Thanks SO much! Lois!
