Art by Everett Raymond Kinstler, Marion Sitton, Bill Molno, M. Rose and Jack Abel. No relation to the 1957 film, this pre-Code classic uses a lurid cover and title to lure readers into a series of fairly typical crime stories about young women. It was one of the comics singled out in Dr. Fredric Werthams anti-comics tome Seduction of the Innocent. Turned down by the parole board, Faith Butler escapes reform school and returns to a life of crime with her old boyfriend; Adele joins a neighborhood gang and soon finds herself stealing cars; Bea discovers that shes a pawn in a scheme to blackmail a millionaire. Featuring a painted cover reprinted from a lurid paperback. Also featuring a nice contents page illustrated by Everett Raymond Kinstler on the inside front cover. Reform School Girl!; I Tried to Bury My Past!; Cell Mate; Payoff for Passion!; Fast Company! 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
