Banana's Mystery Item REVEALED!

From, deb Clarke;

1920′s American Dancer/Film Actress/Writer  Louise Brooks may have worn panties very similiar to the panties hanging from Bananas’ tin ceiling while dancing a fan dance in Paris, or in film, or with the Ziegfield Follies.  our feathered panties are from a long closed 1930′s Miami Beach nightclub.  the g-string guess was pretty close, but these babies are many strands away from a ‘g’.  btw: her helmet haircut became the iconic hairdo of the times.  perhaps Betty Page copied Louise’s ‘doo’.
