Re: [Cz-L] Popovici portrait on the Rathaus wall...

Thanks, Jerome -  I've never seen this one before.  We'll need a statue for the film and having on a hat just wouldn't have worked.  So he was entirely bald.  Today many men with thinning hair shave their heads - it seems to be considered manly or something but in those days when a man was bald he was really bald. In a couple of his pictures he wears what I think we called a cravat, a forerunner to the tie and a cousin to the ascot or bowtie.  I don't recall men wearing these in Cz.  But I recall the knickerbokers.  I had several pair and the Canadian kids stared at me when I wore them.  Amazing how many changes we went through in one lifetime.   Regards, Andy From: jerome schatten <romers@shaw.ca> To: andy halmay <andy_venivici@yahoo.com> Cc: czernowitz-L <czernowitz-l@list.cornell.edu> Sent: Saturday, February 4, 2012 2:53 PM Subject: Re: [Cz-L] Popovici portrait on the Rathaus wall...
