Tessie the Typist Comics #14

Tessie the Typist brings her signature wit to issue #14, as this charming 1948 cover finds our blonde heroine and her checked-jacket suitor Wolfley sharing a laugh on the sofa — she's handily producing a pair of dark glasses rather than dimming the lamp he's reaching for. It's a perfectly timed bit of romantic comedy captured in bright, lively art that showcases the breezy humor Tessie fans came to love. With "The Lucky Lady!" inside, this ten-cent slice of postwar fun is a delightful snapshot of Marvel's lighter side.
