SECRET HEARTS "So Little Time!" / FALLING IN LOVE "Perfect Gift"

Here's a bittersweet Yuletide tale about potential love that was published twice...

...first, half a century ago, in DC's Secret Hearts #87 (1963)...

...then, with the usual "updating" of fashions, hairstyles, and automobiles (and a title change) in DC's Falling in Love #128 (1972)!

Not every Christmas romance story ends like a Hallmark Channel Holiday Movie, even in the 1960s-70s!

Illustrated by veteran artist John Rosenberger, the name of the scripter of this melancholy tale is lost to the snows of time.

Merry
Christmas!!!
