[edit] DescriptionMarilyn "Tee" Matthews, January 17, 1944. Photo caption: "She was a model for the "Powers" modeling agency--Tee Matthews sports Bathing Suit Styles from 1944. In 1944, the ambition of every girl in the balmy Florida city of Winter Haven was to be one of Dick Pope's girls. Dick Pope was a promoter of a tourist fairyland called Cypress Gardens. Every Sunday he turned loose in the gardens about a dozen girls - the prettiest in Winter Haven - dressed in corny Southern-belle fashions. For a fee (55 cents for civilians, 30 cents for men in uniform) visitors could roam at will through the cypress grove, sniff the gardenias and photograph the girls."
