The Apple Mary entry in Gallery 2 could use some additional information specific to the spanking. For more information about the Apple Mary/Mary Worth strip click on the above link or look for one of the Mary Worth entries.
April 24, 1936 is the date of publication. The participants are Bessie Buxom and Mrs. Worth's good friend Bill. Bessie is a not very talented singer at a local night club. Bill is smitten with the woman but she is one big nagging pain in the neck! This confrontation takes place, as guessed at, in Bessie's dressing room at the club. Bill has been bragging over the fact that he is due a handsome reward [Mary and Dennie get half the reward money and invest in a local mom and pop store] for capturing some swindlers. But they have, in turn, been swindled out of the reward money at this point. Eventual he does get the money and proceeds to buy the night club.

Mary Worth is stunned [July 7, 1936] that Bill has been persuaded by Bessie to buy The Happy Hour Night Club instead of investing in a freight boat. Looking now at the end of our story [November 5, 1936] Bessie is shocked that after expenses her share of the quick turn-around sale of the "café" - the night club - is five dollars. Dennie would like to see Bessie keep yapping so that Bill would give her another dose of the hairbrush! At this point Bessie is out of the strip.

Thanks for all this additional information, Phil - I've put it away in your "Mary Worth" sub-folder to await my further attention in the New Year.

THANKS!! Phil I too want to see Bessie get it again with that hairbrush
