Millie the Model Comics #65

Dan DeCarlo's cover for this December 1955 Atlas Comics charmer captures Millie seated in a bright yellow convertible while a smitten police officer — ticket in hand, heart symbols floating in the air — promises to handle the blue car that's blocked her path, much to the amusement of onlookers gathered nearby. It's a perfectly staged bit of street-corner comedy, with a one-way sign, a red traffic light, and a crowd of bystanders adding to the cheerful chaos. Promising "All New Laughs," this issue delivers exactly the breezy, lighthearted fun that made Millie the Model such a delight in the mid-1950s.
