Klaus Nomi: consigli per gli acquisti!
In addition to being an accomplished pastry chef, German New Wave opera singer from outer space, Klaus Nomi, was also a spokesperson for Jägermeister, the German cough medicine and working class aperitif.
Nomi’s face appeared on one side of a cardboard “table tent” distributed to bars that read:
“I’m drinking German Jägermeister because that’s my kind of girl over there.”

Unglaublich. The sideways glance, the fingerless gloves… plus I love imagining what “my kind of girl” meant to Klaus.
