1767-Jan.-14: Mlle. Menageot, a merchant in Cap-Français, advertised a wide range of luxury goods and imports from the Indies and Paris. Her stock included fine powders, dental opiates, gold watches decorated with diamonds, and Venetian masks. She also specialized in decorative wallpapers, perfumes, and fashion accessories like ribbons and Italian flowers. The availability of such sophisticated metropolitan products near the new theater reflects the high level of consumerism among the city’s elite.
