As Mr. Morrell says, "if you don't know furs, it's very easy to be misled!"

 

If you keep watching further, at 43:20, as Mr. Morrell and the two ladies whom he helped in buying sables are leaving the restaurant, an old gentleman observes them and says "Morrell has two sabled ladies today, he must get a quantity discount on fur coats!" LOL!

Is that how fur salons used to operate back in the day? You just go in, sit down and watch the models walk around wearing furs until you see one you like and point it out?

 

Those were the days!
