EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Three cheerful young ladies from Los Angeles, California, wanted to show originality and daring" we are transported back in time to witness a truly extraordinary scene. These three bold women decided to push the boundaries of conventionality during their lunchtime escapade by dining in a pond filled with crocodiles. As we gaze at the image, we can see that the legs of their dining table are submerged in water while the diners prudently keep theirs raised. However, it is not fear of the crocodiles that motivates them but rather concern for rheumatism. Their audacious act is captured beautifully through Beltrame's skillful use of color lithography. This illustration was originally featured in Courier Sunday on October 11th, 1931. It showcases these adventurous ladies defying societal norms and embracing an unusual setting for their meal. The presence of waiters attending to them adds an element of danger and excitement to this already bizarre scenario. The combination of wild animals, daring stunts, and unconventional beauty care makes this photograph print a true testament to the spirit of adventure exhibited by these American women from Los Angeles. It serves as a reminder that sometimes stepping outside our comfort zones can lead us on unforgettable journeys full of unexpected surprises. Beltrame's artistic talent shines through as he captures every detail - from the girls' hair blowing in the wind to their carefully elevated legs - creating a visual masterpiece that continues to captivate viewers even today.
