An outstanding page of original art from Stanton's late-era sizzler, Family Maid. Family Maid tells the tawdry story of Bettina, a buxom beauty who uses her position as domestic for a repressed household to ensnare the father, mother, daughters and son in a web of sexual humiliation. In this image, Bettina, looking like a supercharged Bettie Page, makes the family patriarch wear panties while he washes the dishes. Meanwhile, poor Teddy, the pent-up teenaged son, regards Bettina with a mixed expression of trepidation, desire and shame. By the time Family Maid reaches its climax, Bettina will have banished the mom, spanked the dad with his own belt, bedded one daughter, paddled the other's posterior with a hair brush, and used Teddy's face as a tuffet.

Stanton's original sleaze art is almost impossible to obtain. Almost all of the original artwork from Stanton's estate was purchased by publisher Benedikt Taschen and by another man who prefers to remain anonymous, and this art is effectively gone from the market. Along with the previous and following lots, this may be the only original Stanton sex-digest art that collectors will have a chance to buy for years to come.
