Is that the new Swiss Army "Don't ask, don't tell" knife?"

Where did you find those dancers?? Was that a Busby Berkeley number?

I truly don’t know the origin of the image; found it on a website that had some old B&W photos featured.

I annoys me when these things are not annotated. Sorry I can’t help. ;-(

My grandmother taught me this, showing me a science textbook from her youth that said there were seven planets.

In my youth, the science textbooks insisted there were nine planets ...

Gain some, lose some ...

If I had to venture a guess, those dancers look like something Busby Berkeley would have done in the pre-Hays Code days. Just his kind of wacky and skimpy dance costume. Great photo. Lots of cool stuff on this thread.
