Ringing in the 1939 Carnival season is a German bombshell, toasting the skies while wearing an oversized jester hat. The rich black of her evening gown stands out against the head of a Roman centurion and the twin bell towers of Munich, both printed in gold leaf. This would be the last Lenten festival to be celebrated in Germany until the end of World War II.
