PAI-XXX, 233) "The Salon of the Hundred, was a small gallery on the
premises of the magazine 'La Plume' where promising designers displayed their
work. The publication's marketing arm, Editions d'Art, also issued these posters
and decorative panels in various editions, often on quality paper as art for the
home
there were 43 in all" (Gold
