Plastic Bathtub (Dec, 1947)

Plastic Bathtub is a great time saver, says Dolly Down, nightclub singer, above. You can sun-bathe and water-bathe at the same time. She’s shown here atop a Miami hotel.

    Wow… Dolly Down?, Nightclub singer?, and all this talk about bathing in a see-through tub?, What’s not to like? :D

    Remember when they made things clear plastic so you could see how everything works? I’d like them to make my Whirlpool Tub clear so I could see how it relaxes me.

    I don’t know, I doubt that even a perfect body would look that great squashed against a transparent bathtub.
