The Chat noir (the black cat) was a cabaret, open in the late 19th century in Montmartre. If everyone knows the famous bill by Steinlen in 1896, you can now see the original sign in Musee Carnavalet, a parisian museum dedicated to Paris. (free entrance) For the french readers, you can read all the story and sing a karaoke on this site : Le Chat noir |

Ahh, the black cat of Paris! This is definitely one of my favourite symbols of the French capital, usually for the cabaret, and once again you’ve shown me one I didn’t know about - thanks a lot! And the Musée Carnavalet is yet another Parisian museum I’m not familiar with - shame on me.
