I just posted this link on the Nudist History group but I think it should be shared with all here. It's a very interesting look at our lifestyle back in the 30's. Even the music is neat bring to it the proof from the era. I hope you all enjoy it. Garyhttp://www.clubnaturismo.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=46&Itemid=

There is even video footage out there of Eva Braun skinny dipping while on holiday in Italy, around about the same time! And NO, Shicklegruber is not in the Video!

I have to say that short historic film was very interesting. It gives you insight on how people thought back then.

Thanks for posting. So where did we go wrong? This seems so natural and normal, but now nudity is just 'sex' in the USA.

Thanks for the link, great review of the past! Interesting to see how 'open' people really were 70 years ago. With the exception of the somewhat derogatory comments from the narrator on the overweight gal you can see in the film that everybody seemed at ease with each other.

Great video. It would seem that fun at nude resorts hasnt changed that much since the early century. People are still people, once the layers are peeled off!

Fascinating. Many thanks to a window in nudist life in past years. Note how prurient the photographer was.

Two things about this film; It was then acceptable to make jokes about the large sized woman. Although that attitude is still with us, it is now considered rude to do this. Secondly; All of the bathing beauties had natural breasts! Not a bit of silicone or saline to be found anywhere. I for one thought that they looked terriffic and I still think that a natural woman looks great. This is a phenomenon that I first noticed while watching re-runs of the the Lawrence Welk Show from the late 60's and early 70's. All of the women were natural. I had forgotten what a real woman looked like. Ladies, bigger is not necessarily better.
