This staged picture (City of Toronto Archives, Fonds 1257 Series 1057 Item 4766) was taken by Toronto-based commercial photography firm, Alexandra Studios, and has been posted on the internet many times. Usually with a caption, saying that this was the first time females rocked shorts in public, and the sight even caused a guy to crash his car. While both claims are actually false, most people don’t bother to background check the photograph. Including this person.
