Here's another from the Paris EXPOSITION UNIVERSELLE.
A souvenir from LA MAISON DU RIRE (The House of Laughter), an expo presentation by the journal LE RIRE (Laughter),
a favourite of bLOGOS/HA HA.
This is a 1900 drawing of the exterior of La Maison du Rire.
(It's from here)
And, especially for all our PUPPET CULTURE subscribers, an interior view of the above : LA SALLE DES MARIONNETTES.
(From here)
The exterior frieze presents the grand parade of passing persons.
The souvenir emphasises the same.
These are, you are, we are...
Types de la Rue.

And what of the communiqué?
This self-declaring card of backwards regard??
