..Top Love Stories #19 is fast on it's way to becoming my favorite L.B. Cole Romance cover. All that red, and the woman on the cover looks Doris Day inspired. 

It's also the 'sister' cover perspective, color and subject wise to Spook #23. 

What's not to love?

Picked this up yesterday at my LCS, but the "SDD" on the cover is confusing me.  What is that?  Someone's personal name stamp?  I always avoided buying this issue because it seemed very common and has a less than exciting cover, but the price was so cheap I couldn't pass it up.

This book came in 3 flavors:  Star, Star Accepted Publications reprint, Superior Canadian reprint

SDD always denotes the Canadian issue

used to be about half off.  But with Coles going through the roof that difference has narrowed considerably, depending on the book of course

as far as Overstreet, you're quite the kidder

Well...you know how I like to kid...but I'm happy with the book anyway.  A Cole book is a Cole book...and it was only $30...

Hold on...let me look...but meanwhile, why doesn't Overstreet list prices for Canadian issues?  How do they compare with US issues?

And just so you know no GPA sales of the Canadian version but a few of the Accepted.  

And I agree - still a righteous book

It's okay - I got fooled by the Accepted version on this book when I first started collecting these issues.  I have since added the Star Pub.  Canadian may be rarer (shrug)

"Rarer"...hmmm...maybe triple guide...hm  lol

A quick look at ebay revealed very few Star copies, but a lot of Accepteds.  No Canadians on ebay.  But, I remember back in the early 90s when I started buying Cole books there always seemed to be a lot of issue 103, whether Accepted or Star, but very few of all the other Cole Blue Bolts.
