Hitherto, Count Charles Korsetz has never written anything except cheques; but here is his own entrancing account of the great days at Korsetz Castle, and of the parties and partis of a vanished Europe where he moved with aplomb in a world of fantastic wealth and extraordinary breeding.’

Cecil Beaton's spoof memoir of an Eastern-European aristocrat, written in a similar vein to My Royal Past. The Count’s narrative tells of the merry-go-round of European society and travel, broken up by the two World Wars. Anecdotes are populated by a thinly disguised cast of social extras, such as Mr W. Somerset W. Morn and Lady Coalfax. The text is complemented by spoof photographs. The American gossip columnist and author, Elsa Maxwell gamely plays the part of the Count, masquerading in a series of wigs and bald-caps. Other parts are modelled by Mae Murray, Sandra Douglas-Home, Charmain Montagu Douglas Scott, Perlita Neilson and Martita Hunt.  The cover of the dust jacket features a portrait by ‘the fashionable painter Beatknik’

I love this brand
I just started doing sublimation cups and would buy them at hobby lobby, but the market is saturated and they’re always out. So, I just bought a 4 pack from this company to try. They turned out great, I just don’t like metal straws, so I buy plastic ones separately. Then I went up to the 8 pack and again, wasn’t disappointed. They don’t sweat, the ice stays solid and the water stays cold overnight. I see sub cups and haven’t had anyone complain yet. They also sub really well. This is now my go-to company for sub cups.
