Love Romances 100 (1962), 7.0-7.5 that would benefit from a press (highest on the census are two 8.5s; only 9 on the census); book is complete and the PQ is likely CR/OW; Kirby/Colletta goodness throughout; a slabbed 8.5 sold for about $384.00 before BP on Heritage in July of 2022, while a raw 5.0 sold for $200.00 in May of this year. $250.00.

Love Romances 102 (1962), CGC 6.5, CR/OW; tough to price this Kirby/Colletta/Heck beauty, as there is little data; tied for 2^nd on the census (the highest being a 7.0, only 4 on the census); thought it had a good shot to be the highest; there are 2 small plastic chips from the case that can be seen in the pic; grader notes: light cover tanning; very light wear to cover; very small tear left bottom of spine; very small, multiple tear with crease left center of back cover; $280.00
