books0977: Mistinguett (c.1924). Charles Gesmar (French, 1900-1928). Poster. Printer: Imp. H. Chachoin, Paris.Ooh, what is that you’re smoking, mi'lady? One of the rarest of Gesmar’s designs for Mistinguett, this image shows her flirtatiously smoking a pearl-encrusted pipe, glancing coyly – or is that warily? – over her shoulder. She’s shown in the “Bonjour Paris” revue of 1924-25. Gesmar also designed her costumes, beginning at the age of 16. -- source link
