In celebration of France's victory in the World Cup, here are some recently uncovered French clippings regarding Louise Brooks.
First up is what may be the first mention of Louise Brooks in a French newspaper, who is described as a "deliecieuse danseuse des Follies qui a signe une long contrat avec Paramount." This clipping comes from Paris-Soir, and is dated December 23, 1925.
And here is an advertisement for The American Venus (as La Venus Moderne) from a year later from a regional newspaper, Gazette de Bayonne, de Biarritz et du Pays basque, dated December 21, 1926.
And lastly, here is an usual image of Brooks, from a clipping from 1928.
