JvR11 Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 I think Love Secrets 40 and Brides Romances 7 were a story line that was used for cover material. 29dukedog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JvR11 Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 I don't have a Sweetheart Diary 38. But, this was cover was a swipe from a Baker story. I just don't remember which one! I should have kept notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fascinating. Serialized Romance. A first that I don't think the St. John run of covrers can lay claim to.

Why do I let that man take advantage of me? That was a deal Yep. In hindsight, it was a steal. But this was probably five years ago, so it didn't seem cheap at the time. As collectors and occasional sellers, we usually remember the stuff we sold cheap that later took off in price. I suppose when you are a full-time dealer like Harley, you just shrug it off because it happens so frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacentaur Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Splash to Cinderella Love 14, a non-Baker cover issue so I only just became familiar with this story... sagii, 29dukedog and comicnoir 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Yeah, Cindy 14 is a book that doesn't get much love, Cinderella or otherwise! When I bought this one, it was the only graded copy. A 6.0 has since appeared on the census. sagii and 29dukedog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker at the peak of his powers. This was one of the very last new stories he did at St. John, right before their titles switched to all reprinted interiors. sacentaur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joanna- the scan you posted of Sweetheart Diary 38 seems to have vanished from your post... but were you thinking the 4th panel on this page from CL 14 is the source of the swipe you mentioned? The composition does seem very close to SD 38... Edit: Seeing the SD 38 cover again, I'd say that's a match. Good catch! Edited March 11, 2018 by 29dukedog added desc.

29dukedog Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Since we seem to be uncovering interiors (pun intended)... The entire "Mitzi" story from Movie Comics #4 was later reworked and re-scripted for Cowgirl Romances #10...

What a man!" becomes "Here he comes -- but those men what are they doing?" Not a response to the CCA, of course, because CGR 10 is also pre-Code.

I just got lucky and found the panel... but even there, I had a little help; the recently posted CL 14 splash page served as a subliminal reminder. I knew I'd seen that image before, somewhere... sacentaur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
