PERSONAL LOVE "A Love of My Own"

For Veteran's Day, here's a military-themed comic tale of True Love...
...that spans not only military ranks, but generations as well!
This touching (if unlikely) tale from Personal Love #24 (1953) was illustrated by an up-and-coming Frank Frazetta, who would go on to become one of the foremost sf/fantasy artists of all time, doing the definitive book covers of TarzanConan the BarbarianJohn Carter of Mars, and other classic characters as well as posters for movies and tv series including the original BattleStar Galactica.
Next week:
We haven't decided yet what it'll be, but we can guarantee that...
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!
(Oh, you've heard that, eh?)
And now a word from out sponsor...

PERSONAL LOVE "Too Late for Love"

There's a long-standing stereotype about scheming secretaries who steal married men...
...demonstrated in this superbly-rendered story from Personal Love #25 (1954)!
Though the writer is unknown, the art is by fantasy art master Frank Frazetta, who did another story we've presented HERE.
A couple of bits of trivia...
1) "Too Late for Love" is one of the most popular titles for romance comic tales!
There are at least a dozen different stories using it (or some variation like "Never Too Late for Love")!
2) Lila is based on 1950s pin-up queen Bettie Page...
