Alberto Vargas - "Semper Fidelis" - March 1942 Esquire Magazine Varga Girl Gatefold Illustration – Gatefold # 16 of 63 – Verse by Phil Stack - American Pin-up Calendar Collection - The Navy's filled with heroes And the Army knows its beans And the Air Force is a rare force But I'll take the bronzed Marines. There's a swagger to their carriage And they're easy on the eye And my heart does dizzy tailspins When they're proudly marching by; And when they have smeared the Axis And the country is serene … Gee, I hope that I get landed By some Marvelous Marine!

- Thou gavest him [a love philter], I presume. - No. I thought I could do it barehanded. - Art thou a witch or a woman? Prepare a love philter at once.
VERONICA LAKE as Jennifer in I MARRIED A WITCH (1942) dir. René Clair
