If you were around in 1919 (just before prohibition started) and came upon the following poster.........

I mean, seriously, would you quit drinking?

In ironic twist you would have to drink a canoe full of liquor before you considered bagging off with any of them.
Although the one on the front row, to our right, is puckered up and ready to go!

Actually, it seems to be older than that.

It's actually a still from one of Thomas Edison's movies at the "Black Maria" studio, which was active from 1892-1901.

I think it likely there was ironic intent, though perhaps the models were unaware of that.
