Just found a great article at Wikipedia about double entendres:
One of the earliest examples of double entendre in American culture was the late 19th-century vaudeville act, the Barrison Sisters. They danced, raising their skirts slightly and asking the audience: "Would you like to see my pussy?" After an enthusiastic response, they would raise up their skirts, revealing live kittens secured over their crotches.The picture to accompany that paragraph is great. I can only imagine the priceless reactions of the audience the first time they pulled that off! :)
