Four Female Civilians in Swimwear Riding Along the River in a Small Boat, 1931. 'Getting away from it all. And surely this striving was never more noticeable than in the look and demeanour of the ladies, God bless 'em. After all the mannish horrors of the twenties, a return to the strictly feminine. For the boys a very welcome change indeed. The girls no longer tried to look boyish, thank heaven, but did everything to emphasise their sex'. From "Time To Remember - A New Era", 1931 (Reel 2); documentary about the world in the early 1930s.
