Advertising Mural

Most of the paintings in the mural city of Toppenish are historical scenes and personages. This is one of the exceptions. Though I imagine the costume is historically accurate for some period in the town's history, it makes me wonder the profession of the model.

I think Pepsi jsut has models. . . not any undertones in their message. Seems to me they have done that for a long time. . .

Great photo. I looked at Google and found that she's what's known as a Gibson girl. She appeared on a 1909 Pepsi tray that has been reproduced two times.
