Vanity Fair has a great article called Swim Lessons: A Life in Pools, that dives into the subject of swimming pools throughout the ages. Inspired by a new book on the subject, the article explores the culture and storied history of pools from around the world. Classic photos from the 50s and 60s include synchronized swimmers, vintage Las Vegas, and even the Beatles relaxing in a pool. Take a dip down memory lane.
