Love Romances #64

A golden sunset sets the mood on this 1957 Atlas romance gem, where a dark-haired young woman in a bold red-and-white striped top melts into the embrace of a blond young man — the cover's teasing caption, "Suddenly… 'I'm in Love!'", capturing that rush of unexpected feeling perfectly. With interior stories including "Beauty Contest," this issue delivers the heartfelt drama that made Love Romances a staple of the era's romance comics scene. Cover inks by Vince Colletta give the scene a soft, warm finish that suits the tender moment beautifully.
