I feel pretty weak today. And now I find out it's a crime! Dammit!

That Hank said...

Don't be a criminal! Does that look like Houdini's back to you?

Ms. Moon said...

It sure could be.

That Hank said...

It's the hair that makes me think that.

"Triple in Size, Triple in Quality"?

Oh, yeaaaah, that's what she said.

All I have to say is that I want some ass pants that say "CLING TO PHYSICAL CULTURE". I want 'em real tight.

That Hank said...

EL: Ha!

May: You bring me the pants, I will make the stencil.

I have an old Physique Pictorial, this certainly looks like a precursor to that although I do not think that was there intent. Or maybe it was.

That Hank said...

Oh, it totally was. How else to show mostly nude dudes?
