☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Wanted - a Mate!", a lonely U.S. Navy sailor named Dan places a personal ad, only to find himself entangled in a series of surprising letters from a woman named Betty—though the truth behind the correspondence is far from what he expects. Written and illustrated by the Iger Shop, this 1951 romance comic captures a sweet, bittersweet tale of mistaken identity and enduring connection, with every week’s cablegram carrying a quiet promise across the sea. The story’s heartfelt charm is matched by the crisp, expressive artwork on both the interior and the cover, both by the Iger Shop.

U.S. Navy sailor Dan places an ad in the “personal column” of a newspaper. He corresponds with Betty, but when he visits, Dan discovers Betty’s 16-year-old sister Peggy was the one who wrote to him. Dan’s sea duty lasts for two years: every week he gets a cablegram from Betty. When he gets back, he discovers Betty is married and it was once again Peggy who’d been writing to him. Dan decides to marry Peggy.
