the deco lovers were out in full force, a highlight for me was seeing Doris Eaton Travis, the oldest living Ziegfield Follies girl. her new book is out and is abFAB, full of pics and her unbelievable story.
great and unusual vendors with art, ephemera and vintage clothes lined the street along ocean drive

RIP – Doris Eaton Travis, 106, once measured 36-26-38. That got her into the Ziegfeld Follies at age 14. At a fundraiser 2 weeks ago, she apologized for not doing cartwheels. Instead, she dazzled the crowd with oldtime Follies kicks. http://urdead2me.wordpress.com/2010/05/11/rip-doris-eaton-travis/
