Haut Ton Directory of Portland, Oregon (1888)


Few examples of Barchus advertisements have been located, and those that have been located tend to be from earlier in her career. This example is from a Portland city directory of citizens and social venues that appears to have been published only for 1888. “Hout ton” is a French term that refers to high fashion, fashionable society, or people of high social status.
