Two Male Civilians in Swim Suits Sitting on a Pole and Enjoying a Pillow Fight in Front of a Crowd, 1931. 'The world shipping slump brought its compensations. To keep their liners in commission, companies inaugurated the first, but the very first, cruises. Some advertised rates at only £1 a day. Cruises were one long party, with the added attraction of visits to foreign ports and places that otherwise you'd never have a hope of seeing. Suddenly ships' officers found themselves comperes in one endless variety show, organising deck games, swimming galas and beauty contests. Yes, for £1 a day it was certainly a full life while it lasted'. From "Time To Remember - A New Era", 1931 (Reel 4); documentary about the world in the early 1930s.
