No. 36. May 29, 1920. The term "sans-gêne" is an appellation used in France to denote unabashed behavior and a disregard for societal constraints. Sans-Gêne in this context is a charming, humorous, and risqué French magazine, published and edited by Samuel-Sigismond Schwarz, that lives up to the name. Each issue features biting wit and humor with numerous mildly bawdy illustrations and cartoons by some of the top French illustrators of the time. Full page illustration on back by Maurice Pepin. Centerpiece illustration by Jehan Testevuide. 8.75" x 11.75". 12 pages. Black and white. Text in French.
