Sweetheart Diary #41

A young woman writes in her diary while gazing at a framed photograph of a young man, her daydream literally blooming above the page as the two nearly share a kiss — it's a wonderfully expressive image from cover penciler Charles Nicholas and inker Vince Colletta that captures romantic longing in one graceful composition. With 68 all-new pages for just 15 cents, this March 1958 Charlton issue delivers remarkable value for fans of mid-century romance comics. Inside, writer Joe Gill, artist Charles Nicholas, and inker Sal Trapani bring the story "Jealousy" to life — a title that promises all the heartache and hope the genre does so well.
