I remember too many Canadian men wandering around in tiny Speedos as they wended their way south to Old Orchard Beach in the '70's. Thank you for reminding me of this bewildering childhood memory!

Subject: [h-cost] JC Superstar and Speedos


I know the subject header looks funny! Tonight I watched Jesus Christ Superstar, On Demand. During JC's visit to Herod, two men with blonde wigs in the chorus were wearing what appears to be tiny white Speedos. I am not sure but there may have been ties at the hips, which could have been women's bikini bottoms. Were Speedos that small in 1973 for men? If not, when did men's Speedos become bikini sized?
