Before Dear Abby...
Before Ann Landers...
(and I'll bet no reader under 40 knows who they are!)...
Cover by Alex Schomburg
...she was the original "Miss Lonely Hearts" newspaper columnist!
From 1898...
The column's popularity resulted in a radio show, an action-packed silent movie serial where "Beatrice" herself intervened personally in matters both romantic and criminal (Girls have always loved "bad boys"!), and this short-lived 1950-51 comic which dramatized some of her columns!
Don't ya just love a happy ending?
Though the scripter (who may have been a King Features Syndicate writer assigned to the project) is unknown, the artist was Vernon Greene, whose work we've already seen HERE.
