Wedding Bliss WEDDING BELLS "Deferred Bride"

For those of you who had to postpone nuptuals due to Covid (as my niece did)...

...this is a story title and concept (though not the particular reason for the delay) that you can relate to!
Sadly, neither we nor the Grand Comics Database can figure out who created this never-reprinted tale from Quality's Wedding Bells #5 (1954).
Quality sold its' properties to DC Comics in 1956, and only Blackhawk, GI Combat, and Heart Throbs were continued without a break in publication.
Though other titles and characters such as Plastic Man have been revived since, none of the other romance titles have ever returned to print.
💗BTW, my niece is finally getting married this weekend!💗

Love in the Time of Covid-19 DIARY LOVES and WEDDING BELLS "Summer Serenade"

Can being stuck in quarantine with someone lead to True Love?

According to this story from Quality's Diary Loves #27 (1952), the answer is yes!
So the "quarantine" was a fake, since no mention of it is made to John when he pulls up in the limo!
(Admittedly, the timeline after Jan is told about measles is nebulous.
Was she there a day...a week...or longer, before John shows up?)
This story initially appeared in Quality's Diary Loves #27 (1962) and seems pretty innocuous.
However, when the story was reprinted in Quality's Wedding Bells #13 (1956), the newly-implemented Comics Code Authority insisted on some weird changes:
Jan's already-tasteful clothing now covers more of her!
Both Brent and John have been de-aged from early/mid 30s to early 20s!
The hand-scripted "diary entries" have been changed to standard comic book lettering..and the final "diary entry" has been re-written!
Either way, it's a happy ending!
