Stories
The Prince and the Playgirl!
Credits
Al Hartley pencils attributed
Notes: Done before the movie with Lawrence Olivier and Marylin Monroe, but not the
play by Terrence Rattigan upon which the movie was based. The Sleeping
Prince was produced in London in 1953, but didn't reach Broadway until
1956. Someone was noticing the international scene. - Ger A.

Notes: High forheads, small features in the lower part of the face. I wonder if
Sekowsky was always looking down a bit when he looked in the mirror to
draw a certain facial expression. - Ger A.
