Description
(Original Caption) Soon the picturesque Sandwich Men may become extinct from the view here, as already professional members of the gentry in Paris were indignant over the use of Ohio Parisiennes in their place. the first appearance of Sandwich Ladies or chicken "sandwiches" on the boulevard of Paris was instituted by a circus. The police were so frenzied by having to direct traffic tied up as a result of the spectacle that they ordered the practice to be discontinued. A wily manager of a Cinema Theater circumvented the police restriction by having the young ladies carry their advertising in a different manner from the usual sandwich, however. This photo shows the ingenious method, a quintette of girls wearing costumes a La Harold Lloyd advertising his latest picture in Paris.
