Yeah, put me in the “that’s gotta be Liz” camp. As for the sap, it looks like he grabbed that jacket before the tailor was done with it. Those are alteration marks, right?
Great to know, guys. Thanks for the corrections. I didn’t recall them much before the 70’s but I could easily have looked it up. I was just struck by the fashions since the Cat Whisperer had been watching an old Loretta Young movie.

I’ll follow right behind you, said Cleo to Anthony, as he lay dieing, and she still hadn’t clasped the snake…

Looks like a 707. Sorry! I’m an engineer, I can’t help it.

The Boeing 707 came out in the ’50s.
[Sorry…another engineer….]

Could be a Convair 880. (Still another engineer!)
As for Doctor Toon: It could have saved a lot of alimony, too.

Thanks, everyone, for the info about the jet. Regarding the plane, I meant to post this earlier:
This comic is one of those rare instances where I’ve taken two pieces of art and combined them.
The plane–drawn by Charles Nicholas and inked by Dick Giordano–appeared in an issue of FIRST KISS that was dated as Oct. 1962.
The rest of the art was produced by the Vince Colletta Studios and appeared in an issue of FIRST KISS dated March 1961.
So jets were definitely in the public awareness in the early 1960s.
