Own a piece of San Francisco history and dream of swimming in the historic baths! Classic wool swimsuit in sandy beige has deep U-back and skirted shorts. Cute little buttoning pocket hidden under the skirt for change/locker key/etc. The front is silk screened with "Sutro Baths" and two symbols that seem to denote rules of the baths. Now a highly collectible piece, this was once a rental swimsuit at Sutro Baths during its heyday as the world's largest indoor pools. These symbols have remained a fun mystery - I'm pretty sure A = Adult, and I haven't a clue what the slashed B is about. By "Atlantic", a very early source of Sutro rental suits before they were able to source from West Coast knitting mills (G&M, etc). This swimsuit is in good vintage condition, a few small holes and no stains or odors to note.
