"Starving in the Midst of Plenty"

Is this a guy card or what? This girls are famous -- the are the stars of the "Sometimes Girls Kiss Each Other" series.

There is no date on this card, but the fashions appear to be from the 1900-1910 era. It's hard to imagine the environment that made this image -- and it's counterpart -- so popular. Go figure.
