Gene Kelly's umbrella, Singin' in the Rain for Fox & Co.


I'm very sad to see Fox & Co. on London Wall has closed after 143 years trading. As someone who owns over 50 umbrellas I always fancied going in there one day and buying a bespoke umbrella. The film above is drawn from Singin' in the Rain, 1952 and shows Gene Kelly's umbrella which he throws into the air and catches again whilst singing and dancing in the milky rain.
