Candy #49
Candy #49 (July 1967) The issue features a two-part story beginning with Candy and friends on a sailing outing where a boat driven by Smedley takes the lead, prompting concern among the group about his reckless speed. Later, after hours pass with no sign of the boys, Candy and her companions worry something has happened to them, though they eventually discover the boys have merely been delayed. The second part of the story involves Candy being discovered by an advertising agency while riding a bus, leading to a modeling opportunity for five dollars an hour. This discovery attracts the attention of various men, including a police officer and a man named Ad (Addington Collar), who all become interested in the newly found model as she prepares for a photo shoot at the Hartwick Plaza Hotel.
