bout de papier, Vol. 3, No. 1 (1985) — March 1985 // Mars 1985, p. 35

The winner: Since you chaps all agree, I’ll read The Great Gatsby first chance I get. (from Doug Gardner of PSP).
Here are some other good entries:
“I fully agree, mon cher Henri, you DO need some extra furniture in here.”
“My poor butler is colour-blind and he somehow was unable to pick the right pair of shoes”.
“… and to think that some people worry about overcrowding in our former colonies, Henry!”
“Frankly, I wouldn’t be caught dead in those awful black and white shoes.”
“Pas un pas sans Bata.” — (Just look at those shoes — Bata’s slogan in Tunis)
“I say chaps, where did you buy your spiffing shoes?”
“Before the flood.”
