    This is about the strangest autographed photo that I have ever found in my favorite local shop. The act "Devere & Kiki" were from New York City, according to the stamp on the back of the photo. I did find an old article from Pittsburgh ( dated November 22, 1930) that described Kiki and her partner as performing their famous "White Cargo" Dance. She reminds me of the creepy ghostly woman from the movie "Something Wicked This Way Comes." This was photographed by the famous Todd Studios in St. Louis

      It is called "cabin fever." As soon as the weather improves I will slow down considerably. Thank you for your kind comment!
