Twistty1 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Doohickamabob brought that one up about a week ago, and I'd already been debating it, myself. It certainly could be Alice. Something about it, maybe just a general overall impression, makes me think it might be another girl. DukeDog!!!! What's this "debating it" stuff? What's this "might be another girl" stuff? Do you not see the......... "The woman has dimples, therefore she must be Alice"? I'm just trying to err on the side of caution. Here's another one I just found... and it's that same male model, making for about half a dozen covers we've got so far, with that same couple. But this is the best example of a clear, forward facing view of this woman, smiling. I've placed it side by side with a comparable view of a picture we've agreed is Alice. Are these both pictures of the same woman? The answer to this question will either confirm or dismiss at least half a dozen other photos that are currently subject to debate. I don't think it's the same woman. The eyes on the left look more open when she smiles than the woman on the right. I do think that it's the same woman on the left that's on the cover of Sweetheart Diary 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 So tough to judge these things because lighting, the camera angle, and other factors confuse the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29dukedog Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Because a visual aid is always helpful, I'll put together the other covers with the same male and female models, below.

october Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Well, it made my day. I bid $550 on the eBay raw copy thinking that would be competitive. WRONG. Glad I bought your undercopy. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I think ZI saw a $1700 bid on this one. Was that the final? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBFan Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Because a visual aid is always helpful, I'll put together the other covers with the same male and female models, below. (I need to start making better sense out of the album's organization, anyway.) To me, the girl on these covers and Sweethearts 109 is not Alice. In the pictures where she's smiling there are no dimples at all, and when her ears are visible, it's apparent she has less pronounced earlobes than Alice. Also, in the stand-up shot on Sweethearts 109, this model appears to be less petite than Alice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tri-Color Brian Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) OK, I'm confused...I can understand collecting Marilyn Monroe covers because they are so valuable and she was an icon, or even Liz Taylor...but what is the deal with Alice? Is she a relative or something? What am I missing? Here's a song about another Alice: Edited July 16, 2014 by tricolorbrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is she a relative or something? What am I missing? Here's a song about another Alice: I think it's just that 29dd noticed how often she (or her and her lookalike) appeared on romance book covers. Then Dr. Love got her name out of the indicia of one of the books. 29dd uncovered more info on her -- including a couple of movie appearances -- and we have whiled away an idle hour or two debating which covers are really hers and which are the lookalike's. Or maybe there are two lookalikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tri-Color Brian Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) Well, try getting to the bottom of why Blasincomics graded my TEC 310 only 6.0 or 6.5? See the PGM forum...You would have given it at least an 8.0, I suspect. I think if I ever sell anything on these forums I am just going to say, "I grade this book at $XXX.00."

Is she a relative or something? What am I missing? What you are missing: (1) Dimples! Dramatic, delicious, delectable, distinguishing....dimples! (2) She's probably the single most recognizable face to appear on multiple photo covers for romance comics. (3) She's super cute.....a real dollface... Dollface with dimples... (4) See #2. (5) Do not talk about Dimple Club. (6) DO NOT TALK ABOUT DIMPLE CLUB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
