Astonishing that the tourism bosses of Arosa waved through this poster in 1935, which – in view of the nipples clearly visible under the fabric – can be called courageous. Or tasteless.

Which is what happened: Some cantons and the Swiss Federal Railways rejected to display the poster.
In the 70s, the whole thing wouldn’t have been a problem – today, however, a principal would probably commit economic suicide with such an action.
maybe of interest as well (and not in the least offensive):
