In this black-and-white illustrated ad, three men on a TV/theater stage are in Little Bo Peep-type outfits with short skirts and big, floppy hats, kicking their feet up Rockettes-style, with the headline, "Thirst getting into the act?" A woman laughs but hides her eyes with a folder.

There was an extensive period after WWII where drag shows by straight guys and former sailors actually had touring productions. It was only later that people started getting really uptight about this.
