At the ballpark: Ladies Day at Briggs Stadium, Detroit, 1940.

Note the girl in the man's shirt and jeans (scorecard in her lap, next to the curly-haired girl with the cowbell) several years before that style became a mainstream fad.

There's kind of this myth that all women before our own era where uber-thin, prim, proper girls doing nothing but either looking for a husband or caring for 12 children after they got one. Everyone who believes that should view this thread. Clearly, women were just as diverse and fun-loving then as they are now.
