Re: B-17 nose art

Found a B-24 from the 454th BG with the name "Miss America 1944" with the portrait of a woman. The serial number is 42-52312.

Pictures of the nose art can be seen here:

And here, about 3/4 down the page:

Could the Miss America site be incorrect and the bomber her picture was on is actually a B-24? Can not find a B-17 that matches the description.
