Posted this picture last year under the heading "Babe Magnet Ruth." The ladies are the Wampas Baby Stars of 1927. (A "Wampas Baby Star" was a title that the Western Association of Motion Picture Advertisers gave to Hollywood actresses, perceived as most likely to succeed, yearly, from 1922 through 1934). The Killer Toe-mah-toe hanging on Bam's left arm is Sally Rand, infamous 1933 Chicago World's Fair Fan Dancer. From the looks of things, '27 must have been a good year for Ruth.
