Max Munn Autrey :: Pre-code actress Fifi D’Orsay. Fifi is an exciting jazz age cavewoman in this costumed flapper keybook still. Late 1920’s
The press snipe reads: “THE STONE AGE WOMAN may have been a sweet mamma but there can be no doubt about her being a wild one. Here she is, loaded for bear – or should it read ‘bare.’ So far as fashion goes, she’s dressed in skins – we’re not referring to her own! The skirt isn’t much shorter than the skirts one saw until recently, and while the necklace is made of shell it was probably the smartest thing ever shown on Neanderthal City’s ‘Rue de la Paix’ – or Pay, as the stone age husband more likely spelled it. – Posed by Fifi Dorsay, Fox star.”
