The president of the Rehearsal Club came into royalty because of his marriage to which person?
Rehearsal Club (London) The Rehearsal Club was a London club providing support to actresses, ballet dancers and music hall chorus girls. The club provided a space to rest, read, eat and socialize between morning and evening performances. It was founded in 1892 by the Rev. John Fenwick Kitto, vicar of St Martin in the Fields, with the support of Prince Christian, who became the club's President. It seems to have been based at different times at 29 Leicester Square and at Cranbourne Street.
Cynthia (Gaba girl) "Cynthia" was a mannequin created in 1932 by Lester Gaba, a sculptor, retail display designer and later a teacher and writer. An unusually natural and human looking mannequin, Gaba used the attention Cynthia garnered to further anthropomorphize her. As a result, Gaba and Cynthia became famous, with Gaba becoming known for his mannequins, and with Cynthia appearing on a cover of "Life Magazine", and being invited to the wedding of the former Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson in 1937. Gaba's development of lighter weight mannequins, with more natural, human features, along with Cynthia's popularity impacted the use of mannequins in retail sales marketing.
