Dated today in 1925:

Earl Carroll instructing girls in Vanities

Carroll was a theater manager and producer of “Vanities,” a less classy version of the “Follies.” He later ended up serving time for perjury after he lied about serving alcohol at a party during Prohibition. The party just happened to feature a woman sitting in a bathtub full of champagne.
