Dang, those are pretty.

Thanks.  I actually didn't know I had them.  I bought a bunch of romance books months (I hope it wasn't years!) ago.  Finally got around to taking a look at them.  Some issues I don't recall having seen copies of before.

Kinstler?

If not, he did contribute a knockout inside cover to this issue.

Nice Kinstler books Sqeggs.  I especially like the inside front covers he did for Avon. Like this one, they're almost always excellent.

I'd also recommend the Kinstler bio by Jim Vadeboncoeur, Jr.  Very interesting and full of great examples of Kinstler's art.

Strong price for the Atlas 'My Own Romance #32' on eBay tonight. Was watching but got so caught up in the news cycle tonight i missed the close. Sure the double cover didn't hurt :wink:

Speaking of strong Atlas prices, a VG/F copy of Girl Confessions #26 sold for $537. a couple weeks ago on eBay

Glad I won this copy on eBay years ago for a fraction of the recent sale...

Nice. Didn't realize people were hunting for that one.

Great composition. Intriguing color use. Campy as stated earlier. Eyes don't lie. People are discovering books that make their eyes pop and subsequently are making their wallets pop.

As soon as I saw it I wanted it. And if I want it there are others.

That's precisely what I said when I first saw this one... another book that recently had a strong sale for a lower grade copy, as recently noted in this thread.  Just one of those outstanding covers.  The classics engender themselves.

This was the second series with this name ( this one published by Master Comics, the previous by Story Comics).

While this one is clearly the star of the run there are other very alluring covers in this run too. Including one I'm chasing relentlessly :ph34r:

V2 #8 is another favorite of mine (scan below borrowed from the DCM).  Many of the other covers (and interior work, too) are really, really nice.
