Andrea Hale of The Retro Blog has a neat post about what The Golden Girls did before they were famous.
Betty White (left), for instance, did a Fantastik Disinfectant cleaner; Bea Arthur starred in Mame with Lucille Ball; Rue McClanahan did a risque striptease in Hollywood After Dark in 1968.
No Estelle Getty (RIP) though - but Andrea did find a clip of her workout
