A Modest Proposal



Is it just me, or is the girl on the right making a move on the girl on the left? And this was in the 70's! And my kids think we were boring back then...




And once you see it on one illustration, you see it everywhere.

I asked my son and he agreed. It wasn't my imagination. He suggested that it was signs of either a Russian Cold War Plot pre-Glasnost or Aliens.

Coincidence?

Ha! As a teenager in the 60's with all that "free love" floating around, I can tell you that it was a time when "anything goes"--and did! From there, a lot of hush-hush relationships became public. The ladies on the pattern clearly illustrate it!

Even more shocking than the precursory signs of lesbian chic are the price tags: $1.00!
