A contest to enter…

November 24, 2010 By Cari

To promote her new regency romance (which I haven’t read yet, but sounds really funny), Teresa Bohannon is having a competition for an original near mint condition comic book Perfect Love No.3 from 1951. If you love Mad Men this is what secretaries would have been reading on their lunch break! The comic is worth between $120-200 USD! I want it just for the cover. I would put this under glass and hang it on my wall, but I freely admit to loving comic books and if I win…I will read it before I put it under glass! I love the love stories mentioned at the bottom of the comic. ‘Could Love Survive The Pharaoh’s Curse?’ and ‘I Risked My Happiness on The Wheel of Fate’. Is it just me or does the first one conjure up romantic gropings amid dust covered mummies? I see Agatha Christie (and her second husband younger by fifteen years – go Agatha!) digging in Egypt and finding herself caught in a curse that… Well let your imagination run wild! I hope I win, but if I don’t…maybe you will…but only if you enter! Last entry date is Jan 31st 2011.

    Hi Cari,
    Thanks for helping to spread the word.

    The cover of this comic book really is quite lovely, and of course very passionately romantic. It is also very suitable for framing, from both an artistic and a collector’s standpoint. It is what is referred to as a “painted cover”, which means it is from a commissioned painting rather than a colored drawing. This not only adds to the unique and delicate beauty of it; but it is also one of the main reasons it is more valuable than most Romance comics from this era.
    Smiles and good luck,
    Teresa
