Andy ,
  First it was Percy Stuart not Stewart.
   Strictly made in Germany.
    A 2- penny weekly brochure translated from German into Rumanian.
   Something like "Mission Impossible". Never ending.
    It served mostly to improve our Rumanian that we
     had no alternative way practicing .
      The Germans made a TV series after the war.
     It started in Baker street London and shifted to New York
     because of WW .
      Dont you ever ask an original Czernowitzer who was Percy Stuart
     or you will loose credit immensly because of lack of basic education,
Hardy

Mimi,

I can tell you exactly what they would have thought in Czernowitz about torn
jeans and all the schleperei that passes for clothes today. They would have
thought the same that I do today.

In the late '60s my younger son had a school friend who became a total
hippie with hair half way down his back and filthy clothes, etc. The two
boys ran into my dad on the street and my son said, "Hi, granddaddy, meet my
friend, Greg." Dad looked the hapless boy up and down and then said, "I see
it."

The boy later cleaned himself up, went back to school and became a lawyer.
Many years later I looked him up and hired him for a small legal chore. I
asked him if he recalled that meeting with my dad and how he had felt about
being called an "it."

He said he wanted to crawl under the sidewalk and the experience decided him
to join civilization again.

Now at the risk of sounding like a visitor from an alien planet, who was
Percy Stewart?

Andy
