Busty stripper Virginia "Ding Dong" Bell (Bell, Bare and Beautiful) is the featured performer in this 1961 burlesque film produced by then-husband Eli Jackson and filmed in Atlantic City, New Jersey's long-gone Globe Theater by burly-Q magazine editor turned director Jay Hornick. It takes a prurient peek at professional peelers such as Electrique (The Case of the Stripping Wives) and Debbie Starr, periodically punctuated by awkward comic routines and a vocal number from crooner Johnny Crawford (not The Rifleman actor). New York-based kingpin of exploitation William Mishkin (Violated) was the distributor. Cameraman Don Malkames had previously filmed music revues such as early jazz film Jivin' in Be-bop (1946) with Dizzy Gillespie and the low-budgeted Louis Jordan vehicle Reet, Petite and Gone (1947).
