You Better Watch Out: 1953

From around 1953, in a bathroom somewhere in New England, comes this curious Kodachrome from the "Linda" series of slides that your webmaster found on eBay.

I'm swiping the pinup poster.

Caution

Be careful when you remove present from tree - or you may(?) lose it in the bunk house(?)

Thank you very much

XXX not responsible for any ??? by fire or water.

That's what I see anyway.

Matter over Mind

I'll be the first to say it: I cannot imagine that poster helps with the, umm, business at hand.
