Frances Toor was a writer and friend of Diego Rivera
We have a couple signed copies of books about The Americas (Peru, Mexico) by Frances Toor. She was a relative of my mother. Before my parents collected Pueblo Pottery, they were gifted a piece of Peruvian antiquity from the Toors, we presume. I recall noticing the name Toor above our table at the cafe at Palm Springs Museum, in 2010. (Furniture dude; we also had a relative named Irv Olsen in that field, from LA or Beverly Hills). I don’t know if Mom was related to the Toors thru the Hayms or the Bakers/Sukoenigs.
The books live on, for now, on shelves.
The pots will outlast the books.
Much is forgotten. We should have been more like Kunta Kinte, fictional or not.

Frances toor wrote some beautiful and informative guides to Mexico in the 1930s, both a tourist guide in 1933 and 1936 and a “motorist guide” in 1938. She published them out of her own studio in Mexico City. They are very nice historical records of the time.
