Here's the next picture in our WWII gallery of bath time for soldiers. You can see that the artist only had one model, since all the guys look alike. That must have been quite an experience--taking a bath in a big canvas tub, filled with soapy, slippery men!

Crocodiles Keep Out! Guys Welcome!
Here's a juicy picture in the Cannon Towel Series. From what I've heard and read about WWII, the U.S. suffered from a lot of shortages--towels, automobile tires, coffee, sugar, butter and meat.
Most of the soldiers in this picture resemble one another, which would suggest that the artist only had one model. That's probably true--most of the young men of this age were off at war, and that caused maybe the worst shortage of all--a "guy-shortage"!
