Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #33

A charming snapshot of small-town teen life, this November 1957 issue of Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica sets the scene right on its cover: a bespectacled girl named Ophelia confidently declares she's personally asked the boys whether they like going on dates, much to the wide-eyed surprise of a girl in a bright yellow coat — all played out across a cheerful sidewalk setting with other Riverdale students strolling in the background. The two-panel cover gag captures that warm, slightly awkward humor the series does so well, drawing you straight into the story inside. At just ten cents, this was an easy pick for any fan of Archie's world in 1957.
