Tanning Vending Machine from 1945. Most of us with pale skin are looking rather pasty & dreaming of blue skies, summer sun and a tan after this miserable weather. This picture reminds me of the gasoline fight scene in Zoolander as seen here. Not sure why but just how my brain works. These days for a safe tan I love the self tan line by Sisley and for a cheaper option I think you can’t beat Johnson’s Holiday Skin. Go on get your bronze on.

Hello,
I’m working on a women’s sportswear exhibition and would like to use this image. Can you tell me where you found it? Is it in an archive? I would like to find out who owns copyright to license the image.
Thank you,
