Monday is Funday: Contest #2

Well, you could.

Well, you could.

The winner of this contest will receive one of our stunning, hand dyed and hand screenprinted Onesies!

Let us know in your entry which is your favorite design (check  a couple posts back for pics), and tell us if a 12 month or 18 month size would be better.

All you need to do to enter is leave a comment on this post answering one of this week’s questions. One right answer can win, but the response with the most right answers will trump.  Drum roll, please!

From Paula Martinac’s The Queerest Places,

1) In what Massachusetts town, at 20 Quincy St., did Henry and William James’ little sister Alice live with her partner, Katharine Loring? From Martinac’s review:

Henry James– who pictured a Boston marriage in his novel The Bostonians– wrote that Katharine’s love for Alice was “a devotion so perfect and generous…that to brush it aside would be almost an act of impiety.”

2) In which Louisiana town, in a rented room on Royal St., did Truman Capote write his first literary sucess, Other Voices, Other Rooms? Martinac’s reports:

“By the time I was ten”, Capote remembered as an adult, “I was sitting up all night long to write.” He was also already putting himself to sleep by taking a few swigs of whiskey.

3) Which St. Louis author worked as a young man at the International Shoe Company– where he met, befriended, and became infatuated with “a brawny worker named Stanley Kowalski, a “ladies’ man”…”

Kind of makes you want to go out and visit Queer America, huh?

We will choose a winner at 1 p.m. (or so) tomorrow. Any entries posted before we choose will be eligible. We’ll update this post with the winner when he or she is chosen.

(P.S. If you would like to donate a prize for a future contest, let us know.)
