That's one classy chassis! (Vintage Camper Showcase #15)







Hey, what do you mean "No Smoking?" This is my home away from home! You can have my smokes when you pry them from nicotine-stained wrinkly, decomposing fingers.
But this vintage shot of an un-named, circa 1938 vintage camper actually shows the "upside" of trailers, camping and apparently, fashion and interior design! Note the way boss flower prints on the sofa and on her sun dress, or the funky flowery sculpture behind, or even better yet, the foxy lady's porcelain bird and horse collection in the corner shelf behind! Yes, nothing says the great outdoors like broken china and shattered dinnerware!
And how's that for a coincidence! She's looking at herself in the magazine! My heavens, she is at the cusp of fashion.
