Miss America Magazine #3 [21]

Miss America Magazine #3 (1946) delivers a slice of wartime nostalgia with a touch of romantic rivalry, as two flashy toothpaste promoters disrupt the lives of Buzz and Franklyn, leaving their girlfriends, Patsy and Nancy, swayed by charm over loyalty. With the Navy calling and a parent’s signature standing in the way, Buzz faces a personal hurdle as he tries to prove himself—though his path to redemption is far from simple. The story, illustrated with crisp energy by Pauline Loth, captures the era’s spirit with a light touch and heartfelt stakes.
