If that's not classic, I'd like to know what is. PLUS ... there's Marta Kristen - you know, Judy from Lost in Space who was the object of one of my crushes at one time.

Wait'll you see the funnybook where Clark Kent meets Alan Funt and gets his secret identity accidentally revealed on Candid Camera. No, really. What would be more appropos for the inside cover than a poster for what I think is the best of all the Beach Party movies....
