29dukedog Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 There was no particular reason I wanted to see Lovers 50... nothing to do with Colletta. Maneely, isn't it? There's something unintentionally seedy about that one... almost perverse. I think it's the way the guy is groping the woman. Let me see... maybe I do have a scan on disc...

Dr. Love Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 (edited) Absolutely. Love it. Would love to have it. Seedy. But not intentionally. That's worth going for. I'll see what I can find. Not much, I would imagine. Does this count? Edited March 1, 2014 by Dr. Love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to cheat and go to the GCD... I'm sure most of you are familiar with www.atlastales.com and what a valuable reference it can be for Atlas collectors of all genres. They attribute the cover of Lovers 50 to John Tartaglione which is a pretty good guess. The site also encourages contributions, scans, and information about interior stories, etc.... so don't be shy.... GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, looks like a new favorite site for comic resources. Thanks, jimbo! (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 It's one of the best sites I've ever seen for a single comic publisher. It wasn't too long ago when I first found it through Scrooge..... they were still several hundred covers short of having them all collected. It's such a testimony to what teamwork can accomplish. It would probably be impossible for one person to gather them all.... I'm not even sure if any one person even has the full Atlas canon.... GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stock_rotation Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 It's such a testimony to what teamwork can accomplish. It would probably be impossible for one person to gather them all.... I'm not even sure if any one person even has the full Atlas canon Close to 80% of the Timely/Atlas canon has been digitally scanned. I know it's not as nice as having books in hand, but there is a great appeal to having immediate access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JvR11 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Maybe not quite rare but one of my favorite non-Baker romance covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlee Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Maybe not quite rare but one of my favorite non-Baker romance covers. Many years ago, I was trying to acquire all the St. John Romance titles as well as all the Fox Romance books. I actually found it more difficult to get many of the Fox Romance titles and this cover is a good example of why people just weren't that interested in selling their Fox books.

Who was the cover artist on many of these great Fox romance books? From what I've seen the interior art was generally inferior to the covers.

The lady on the cover very much reminds me of Rita Hayworth. The illustrators of the day, including Baker, did look to starlets and fashion magazines for inspiration.
