LOVELORN "Come Back My Love!" in TrueVision!

You won't need red/blue 3-D glasses to read the 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!

3-D: LOVELORN "Moment to Remember"

You won't need the red/blue 3-D glasses to read this 3-D comic story...
...because it's not red/blue 3-D, but an idea to simulate 3-D called...
And now, on with the story...
It's a clever idea, but I can see how it would become irritating on an ongoing basis.
Art by Harry Lazarus, one of a trio of siblings (including Sid and Leon) who all ended up writing and/or illustrating comic books during the 1940s-1960s.
(They are not related to Mell Lazarus, writer/artist of the comic strips Miss Peach and Momma, who also worked in comic books in the 1950s.
Small world, ain't it?)
Next week:
It's Valentine's Day, so we're presenting a special tale by the guys who created the romance comic, Joe Simon and Jack Kirby...
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!
(Oh, you've heard that, eh?)
