  1. What a funny little cut-out patch in the photo! Do you suppose this was intended to be a plate for a light switch?

    Isn't it an awful covering? Rudolph was likely photographed nude, and Gebbé added the covering to conform to the laws at the time prohibiting the photographing of nude adults.

    I's a shame we'll likely never see the unadulterated image. Rudolph has a fantastic physique.

    Best regards,
