An illustration of three men pointing revolvers at a man in a Fez who is holding up his hands in surrender. The outlines of all four men are illuminated by glowing halos.
Britten Austin's 'Second Sight' sees psychic powers used to discover the identity of a murderer in the Mysterious East (oh, all right, North Africa - but it's all the same to British authors of the period). The story appeared in 'The Strand Magazine' in 1921.

The front of an ivory shaded sleeveless evening dress with a drop waisted silhouette. The top half of the dress is embroidered with overlapping circles embroidered with metallic thread. It has a layered tulle skirt
Back view of the ivory silk sleeveless late 1920s dress showing the embroidered circles run around the bodice of the dress
A detail of the tulle skirt of the 1920s evening dress showing the sheer layers of the tulle and part of an embroidered circle
A detail of the bodice of the 1920s evening dress with a shall v neck edged with gold braid and shaded metallic thread embroidered circles
It is quite mesmerising, the clash of multi layered tulle with the more disciplined swirl of deco design circles, created with metallic thread embroidery. The silvery spheres must have shimmered above the tulle. Late #1920s #KSUMuseum #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Ukulele songsheet for "I Ain’t That Kind Of A Baby" by Irving Kahal & Addy Britt and Sammy Fain (1927). Lyrics, chord names and diagrams, unfortunately too much for alt-text.
Another Sammy Fain tune today, collaborating as he often did with Irving Kahal until the latter's untimely death. Esther Walker provides the vocals:
