Millie the Model Comics #15

A sunny day at the beach turns into a comedy of hearts in this December 1948 installment of Millie the Model Comics. The cover finds Millie — blonde, buoyant, and clutching a beach ball in her red swimsuit — bounding through a crowd of smitten admirers, while a dark-haired companion nearby deadpans the answer to why their section of the sand is so empty: "No — Wolves!" A starfish, a stack of gifts, and a cluster of lovesick hearts round out this charming, lighthearted scene, with Pete Riss's linework delivering the kind of breezy, good-natured humor that made this series a staple of 1948 comics shelves.
