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"!
