When this story appeared in Harvey's True Love Problems and Advice Illustrated #36 (1955)...
...the newly-formed Comics Code forced some alterations to the reprinted tale!
Now, here's the original version, from True Love Problems and Advice Illustrated #16 (1952)...
Wow!
There's a lot more of Kit in that splash panel!
And there's a "naughty" caption in the second panel that the reprint leaves out!
The last word balloon "Hold me close, Bill -- very close!" was removed from the reprint!
In the reprint, part of the second panel's caption is deleted, Kit's swimsuit is blackened out, and her bust is reduced...and it wasn't a very revealing swimsuit to begin with!
The only change here is the removal of Kit's cleavage in panels 1, 3, and 5 and a change in her eyes in panel 4!
Interesting what the Comics Code Authority thought was "naughty" enough to warrant removal/modification, especially her eyes in panel 4 of the final page...
