Maurice Whitman's blonde bayou babe's tattered dress makes her look like a pre-Code version of Li'l Abner's hillbilly honey, Daisy Mae Scragg. Whitman, a master of tease who's sexy scenarios earned him a prominent place in Dr. Wertham's Seduction of the Innocent, has even drawn the blonde's bra strap falling off her shoulder, a small detail bound to appeal to lingerie fetishists among Fiction House's readership.
