I'm showering in the Forest! Imagine that!
That's one slick, sleek piece of modern conveniences, Madge. The new Airstream was more than just a "camper," it was a mobile two-star hotel room. You could be in the jungle, forest, desert or prairie, and the modern world was just behind your bumper.
"Oh, pass me the soap, cowboy, I'm felling very dirty after a big day outdoors."
Oh-la-la! Or as the ad says, "...all the world is truly their home."
Photos courtesy the RV/MH Museum in Indiana, and also part of the C. Dickenson collection. Don't think they go together, but were in the same batch. I believe the Airstream exterior is a 1958, while the shower photo may be a different critter, since it says 1952. But still, imagine how revolutionary the shower was for RV campers. It was the last excuse for many people.

Regarding your poll, it should have included "Ringo." He'll get by with a little help from the White Supremecists.
By the way, notice how closely together his eyes are positioned?
Merry Christmas, dude.
Totally a Ringo! So true.
Merriest to you, also. Loved the X-mas card, BTW. The kids are way too old. Start feeding them more junk food.
