Yes it's the one with the games. Too cute! Will play the Kelly game later. The pictures in the little Tour du Monde squares are rather tiny too; gave up trying to identify most of the locations.

Trust me to make it more difficult for myself I should have looked in the magazine. I see now that I got some of them wrong 42 I got very wrong! The joy of perspective.

I don't believe this scarf is previous designs here's why.. As someone who has no idea about H scarves I will preface this by saying it's 4:30am(was at time of writing now 5.30am) and I enjoy researching. Since it's called Le Tour du Monde which was a travel journal. The scarf appears to be based on the wonders of the world and French and Hermes history/culture imo other related stuff in brackets

We have:-

Great Pyramid of Giza and Spynx (there is a King Tut scarf)
Easter island (a maoi statue was loaned to France)
Saint Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow (Napoleon legend has it he wanted to take it back with him)
Statue of Liberty (French design and construction, a gift, a statue of Liberty scarf)
Elephants for India



The cacti and rocks (a possible nod to Kermit Oliver of Texas the only American H designer and creator of the famous and loved as I see from this thread pani la shar pawnee - I'm right about this for sure I've just looked at his painting on this scarf and it's Pani La Shar Pawnee )

Tour De France
The kangaroo for France-Australian relations (stemming from WW1, also an Australian scarf)
The space shuttle (related to Jean-Loup Jacques Marie Chrétien, or all of the French astronauts)
Tightrope walker (Cirque du soleil....Quebec)
Christ The Redeemer created by French sculptor Paul Landowski with assistance from
and built by the Brazilian engineer Heitor da Silva Costa, in collaboration with the French engineer Albert Caquot
27 is the Citroën 2CV car launched at the 1948 Paris car show
Is 42 Isis? Notre-Dame de Paris is built on top of where The Temple of Isis was
5 China?
Others I'm interested in but couldn't i.d 52, 39, 56, 8, 5, 45,60, 22 (grand canyon? it's not Verdon Gorge ) 12 where is that figure sitting looks like it'd have an amazing view(Trolltunga, Norway?). 46 the hippo boat only place I can find that is Loxahatchee FL

I now want the history of all 62 squares

In short it's a collective of all of these things that have created and influenced H hence ending at as called in this thread the mothership

Thanks @litchi this was fun

I have been wanting to post this archive pic of my Panis... (Croisette7 just beat me to it! [emoji6]) to point out that the colors are 98% the same as the old colorways.... as much as I can see, there is only some variation on some of the lines in the outside frames... and in some of the bows on his Highness arm....

This is amazing!
 
It has something to do with fine lines used for outlines (like those used on a mapping pen). it gives an overall lightness and delicacy to the whole design.

So far tattoo is more the silhouette or reverse silhouette on jacquard, more block print of one colour on light background than actual translation of a real tattoo (which often have fine lines).


This makes sense! Thanks, PT!!

We both are right, Pegase. They only changed the hem/border and fabric. Dip dye would be ok for me, but washable
could be the rainproof structure and is less soft.

I am intrigued about this new silk variation.... I hope it will be soft and velvety like the dip dyes!

@croisette @Pegase do you love Panis? [emoji23] do you think you both will add several more CWs?
I was rather disappointed when I saw the pictures & video... then I felt a bit relieved with the thought “money saved”.... (which will end up in the H store anyway.... :-)
I will definitely look for a CW that’s different from the ones I have. I don’t think I would buy “repeat” one that I already have.
