The text on the page reads: "Photos d’outre-mer Vous voyez cette jeune actrice américaine qui fait des grâces devant l’objectif, n’est-ce pas qu’elle est jolie? … Eh bien c’est… …un jeune marin de la flotte de l’Oncle Sam, d’ailleurs artiste dans la vie civile et qui avait la spécialité de ces travestis féminins." Which translates to: "Overseas Photos You see this young American actress who is gracious in front of the lens, isn’t she pretty? … Well it is… … a young sailor from Uncle Sam’s fleet, who is also an artist in civilian life, and who is one of these female transvestites."
