BOOTS Likes Polka Dots and Stripes.

 July 25, 1948.  These two dresses would only look good on a paper doll, especially BOOTS.
September 26, 1948.  BOOTS as Daisy Mae?  Need her husband Rod as a paper doll with a Lil' Abner costume.  The polka dot dress is actually kind of cute.

March 08, 1948.  Life Magazine, page 75.  "BRIGHT AS EASTER . . .

SANTA Cut-Out Figure from A. W. Nugent

December 16, 1948.  A Santa cut-out from A. W. Nugent.  You might be able to move from the "naughty list" to the "good list" if you start right this second, until Christmas, being extra good.  Cut out and color this Santa figure and use it as a reminder to be, in the words of Bertie Wooster, "a good egg".
