1939 New York World's Fair
This is public domain home movie footage I downloaded from the Prelinger Archive and set to music.
The show kicks off with an underwater exhibit of Salvador Dali's "surrealistic" swimsuits (which pre-date similar "topless" designs by Rudi Gernreich by many years).

Was the last part, a bunch of women in bikinis sitting in a zoo enclosure as an exhibit??
Wow... This is crazy stuff considering when it was done... and part of world's fair??!!
We're so tame in 2008.
Yes the last part was women in extremely small clothes on display in what can only be described as a zoo exhibit. But I think it was presented ostensibly as a colony of "artists' models" who are available for "artists" to sketch or photograph, or for "non-artists" to gawk at--you know, to culturally enrich the public. Non-artists at last had the opportunity to experience what is is like to be an artist and have hot babes pose for you--or so it was touted.
