Love in 3-D (sort of) LOVELORN "Come Back My Love!" in TrueVision!

You won't need red/blue 3-D glasses to read this  3-D comic story...
...behind this Ogden Whitney cover, because it's not red/blue 3-D, but an idea to simulate 3-D called...
While other companies were doing actual 3-D, ACG decided to save a few bucks and also tout the fact their "3-D" was still FULL color!
And now, on with the story...

It's a clever concept, but I can see how it would become irritating on an ongoing basis.
The big problem is that the cheap "newsprint" paper was never meant to have so much solid black ink on the pages, resulting in blotchy backgrounds!
Art on this never-reprinted story from ACG's Lovelorn #51 (1954) was by Edmond Good, who worked in various genres for DC, Fox, Nedor/Standard, Fawcett, and ACG, among others.
He left comics to become the Art Director for Tupperware from the mid-1950s until his retirement in the mid-1970s!
