Uncommon to find anything at all of the wrapper. The author of Gigi and the Claudine novels. Married three times, she famously flaunted her lesbian affairs, and caused a near riot with an onstage kiss at the Moulin Rouge in the early years of the 1900's. Gendarmes were called, and the production was banned. She was also involved with Italian author Gabriele D'Annunzio, and rumour has it Josephine Baker!
