Montez H. Lawton SILHOUETTE


On March 26, 1944 Montez Lawton went to see the musical Blossom Time at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco with a man named Stewart. The program from the presentation is glued into her scrapbook. Inside the program I found this in a small envelope. I can only guess that at some point that evening they found an artist, perhaps at the theatre or a restaurant, that did silhouettes.

  1. When I was a youngster, you used to see silhouette carvers occasionally at fairs and fetes(for all I know they may still be about)and I always admired their skill and scissor control.
