Bad scarf.

I believe Dr Wertham would have detected headlights on that cover, which of course would be more appropriate for Hot Rods.

And he would have also pondered on the Freudian undertones of the term Hot Rods.

I don't see a car on the cover, Albert...?

 

 

Oh, you mean her knockers. Yes. Yes, he would.

You've got a dirty mind Albert. You'll be telling me the Alabama Whammer isn't a car race next...

Bad scarf. In your bed!

Oh Jesus. I actually want to know how a scarf was the key to the door of love.  Please have a butcher's and let us know. 

(This is why there are 3 rooms  of my house I can't get into because they're floor to ceiling with terrible comics).

I only gave the story a very cursory glance, so I can't tell you how it was the key to the door of love.  I can tell you that the last panel of the story directs you to a promo elsewhere in the issue where you can actually get a scarf like the one in the story, though.  But you need to cut the red corner off the book to do it.
