Very interesting post

A bit more about Kathy Marlowe.

She was born Kathy Maslowski in 1934. Throughout the 1950s Marlowe modeled for many local promotional campaigns. At one time or another she was.....
“Miss Be Our Guest at the Movies”
“Miss Chinchilla”
“Miss Get the Dent Out of Your Fenders”
“Miss Lawnseed”
“Queen of Western Linens”
“Miss Nightmare”
“Miss Traveling Saleslady”
“Miss Green Stamps”
“Miss Golf Brand”
“Miss Hollywood Stars”
“Miss Date of the Month”
“Meet Me at the Fair Queen”
“Miss Hot Tomato”
“Miss Long White Potato”
and appropriately, "Miss Everything."
In 1957 she appeared as an uncredited model in
The Garment Jungle.

The eBay seller says that's her in the middle. (I agree)
In this scene from
'The Garment Jungle', I believe that's Kathy Marlowe (or it might be Joanne Barnes, another uncredited model) on the right.

For some reason the view outside the window made me think of Los Angeles, so I checked IMDB.
Although
'The Garment Jungle' takes place in New York City some scenes were, in fact, filmed in the garment district of Los Angeles.

Does anyone remember this film? (To be honest I've never seen it)
---------------------------------------
In 1958 Marlowe FINALLY starred in a film. It was an “Adults Only” exploitation film noir called
Girl with an Itch'.

I wasn't sure this photo was from
'Girl with an Itch', until I noticed she's wearing the same dress on the poster.

I'd itch too, look at all that straw.
