This article is from December 1936. Countess Guardabassi's husband was a pal of Mussolini's who did his best to mount a propaganda campaign on behalf of fascism in America.

Another fun fact is that the guy who designed Mar-a-Lago's grand ballroom in the 1930s, you know the one where Trump holds all of those events, dubbed it "the Mussolini Room" because it was modeled on Rome’s Chigi Palace that was then occupied by Il Duce. Good times!
