Wow, they're amazing.

Followed the link and some of them are quite startling.

A few things that caught my attention:

Quote:

4.) Fuzzy ducklings being used as therapy animals for children.
That's really something. I always thought that sort of thing was a very modern concept.

Quote:

9.) Annette Kellerman promoting a woman’s right to wear a fitted, one-piece bathing suit in 1907. She was later arrested for indecency.
Amazing. She's showing no flesh to speak of, but the very idea of a woman allowing her body shape to be visible was considered indecent.

Quote:

13.) A picture of the original Ronald McDonald from 1963.
Fuck me, that's terrifying.

Quote:

23.) Beach patrols measuring the length of women’s bathing suits in the 1920s.
So, progress but...


Quote:

26.) What lifeguards used to look like in the 1920s.
Aha, Because it's fun to stay at the YMCA right?

Walking their barbecued ribs in a bad neighborhood. Amazing.
