The dangers of Celery
Art Frahm (1907-1981) was a pin-up artist who is famous for his "ladies in distress" series in which lovely young women, arms loaded, find themselves in the unfortunate situation of having their panties fall down around their ankles in public.
If you look closely, in many of Frahms paintings you will see that the women are often carrying celery. Coincidence? I think not.
Was Art Frahm acutely aware of this connection between celery and falling underpants? Was this his way of secretly trying to make people aware of the dangers of celery? Look for yourself and then decide.
