"I was reading a recent thread on the fabulous art deco blog site about the bikini a Bolles girl was wearing. I guess the conventional history is that bikinis first appeared in the 1940s. But take a look at these Bolles covers, all done in the 1930s except the Film Fun at the bottom. Could Bolles have popularized, if not invented the bikini?"
