French Cancan's guest from NEW YORK…



STORM …
Bad weather on New-York last days!
Reason why I send this special message to my friend John…
In the kingdom of vintage business, "Mister Strongarm" is of course for me and for all the international collectors, THE POPE…

More than the POPE, he is also "the Count of the COOL" and "The Duke of the FAIRPLAY" …
