My Girl Pearl #3

Pearl Dimly is already poised on the diving board — swimsuit on, enthusiasm undimmed — while a fellow poolgoer warns her the pool is empty, and her cheerful reply ("Good! I hate crowds!") tells you everything you need to know about America's favorite dim-wit. Dan DeCarlo's clean, expressive linework brings the sunny poolside scene to life with real charm, capturing Pearl's breezy obliviousness alongside the horrified onlooker and a relaxed couple at poolside. This 1955 Atlas gem promises "all new laughs," and the cover alone makes good on that promise.
