How would you explain ‘spuzzed up’ in the context? “I’m just razzing you. I’d take up with a pinko in two toots, if he was famous and had a wad of tin. That artist’s little girlfriend is one lucky duck.” “The little girlfriend is actually his wife.” “Like I said. But what a piece of calico, all spuzzed up like an Indian. She’s no Garbo. How’d she get lucky?” “He’s fond of the way she dresses. They’re nationalists.” “No soap!” She shook her head. “To me she looks like a corn-eater.” How would you explain ‘spuzzed up’ in the sentence: all spuzzed up like an Indian? Thanks!
