Crimebuster Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 6 hours ago, Get Marwood & I said: I think the overall quality of Charlton's output went downhill around 1966/7 myself - certainly in terms of what I like personally - but some of the romance titles happily buck that trend. I love this cover for example: She's just adorable, isn't she Interesting to see the progression from Silver to Bronze in that title - separated by a mere 15 years and yet seemingly worlds apart: Volume 1, #22, November 1961 Volume 8, #112, August 1976 @Crimebuster - as OP, do we have your blessing to extend into bronze here? Sure! Bronze is my favorite romance era. I think things start changing a little earlier with romance than some other genres anyway - I see Bronze elements creeping in by 1967. So there's a lot of overlap in eras. Get Marwood & I 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good man Not sure if I've posted this one before, in the middle of the two eras - note the two left feet...

iggy Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) Welp, had this in my watch list for a couple months, I like the cover and it was the best looking copy to roll around. I almost pulled the trigger on it... Then this copy came along. Glad I held out, I think I’ll like it better.

themagicrobot Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Quote Are there good, we’ll written stories in these books or is it just about the art? Is that well-written stories? Dunno. Does anyone read the stories? You can't go wrong with D'Agostino's artwork on the covers or interiors. Many of these CGC Forum threads celebrate just the cover artwork. That is all you see if your books are slabbed anyway. The most exciting thing for @Get Marwood & I is that LM 6d top right. Other people get excited by Margie's thigh in the second image (the stamped arrival date). comic_memories and hchill25 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since this came up in this thread, I've been keeping my eyes peeled for a Sweethearts 122. Wouldn't you know it, one came up for sale right here on the boards last week when I wasn't around. Luckily for me, nobody bought it so when the boardie eventually put it up on ebay, i got a notification, and bought it immediately.
