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 |

J’aime le Chat Noir. I saw the two historic signs in Montmarte at the two addresses of the old cabaret. I searched for them and now have photos. It is interesting that le Rat Mort, another cabaret on Place Blanche, is now a strip club. It looked pretty seedy.
Cool photo of the old sign.
