Yes. It was a neighborhood kid named Dominick, his mother's living room was all matching red velvet and dark oak furniture, and there were plastic slipcovers on everything, including the lampshades. Dominick figured himself to be the upcoming neighborhood stud, he was always working on his clothing and appearance. Generally he was an OK guy.
EDITED TO ADD: They also had a large matador painting on black velvet, which was the style at the time.
Velvet paintings , lol. I remember those !
Three subject types dominated the black velvet painting scene at the time: Elvis, matadors, and sad clowns.
Elvis was a big one Niggers liked one with a black female with a big Afro riding a black panther.
