Dr. Love Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 OK this is the one I was referring to earlier. I've been studying this cover for weeks, and by now I'm 67% certain this is Norma Jeane Mortenson, before her transformation.

Dr. Love Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Of course, Ace had many winners too. Beautiful tone on this one - the image, the coloring. Home run. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sagii Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 But really, Quality was simply that. They set the bar. I think they had the hot girl thing down cold, . Just some nice stuff, with an array of different tones by each publisher. You have an exhibit worthy collection my friend! Take a bow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29dukedog Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 OK this is the one I was referring to earlier. I've been studying this cover for weeks, and by now I'm 67% certain this is Norma Jeane Mortenson, before her transformation. What say you, Men of the Book? As much as I would love to agree with you, and simultaneously discover a third comic with my favorite girl on the cover, I'm quite convinced it's not her. I wish I could offer an insightful explanation for this opinion, but alas, it's just my immediate gut reaction upon seeing the cover for the first time. I've seen many, many early photos of Norma Jeane Mortenson, and there's just something intangible about the girl on the comic cover that lacks Norma's magic. If you're serious about discovering the truth, I suggest you do a Google search. If the photo exists, and it's Norma Jeane, you're bound to find it, and then I'll eat my VF Cinderella Love 25.
