Changing Times

Submitted by ub on

The roaring '20s were extremely weird in many ways. This American cop is measuring the lengthbetween knee and bathing suit in a bathing beach after a local order was issued that women’s suits cannot be six inches above the knee.  

This image was captured recently and the only eyes on her could have been from admirers. Times sure have changed. What would those police officers say about this image?

Unfortunately, this woman was arrested for wearing a one-piece bathing suit without the required leg coverings, which was quite controversial and actually illegal at the time. This image was captured over 20 years before the bikini was introduced to the modern world in 1946.
