Fett, I am in awe of your Charlton collection! Have never even seen so many of these!

Here's my copy of Peter Paul's 4 in 1 and the candy bar coupon you had to send in to get it.

At one time I found about 25 of those at a flea market. Never knew it was a premium you had to send away for.

Here's one of my favorite Charlton runs.

You knew exactly why I requested it 

Very similar 'hallmarks' as Teen Age Temptations 2 and Romantic Marriage 24 (from the guys hairline to the posing of the cradled woman).

Sweet!! Thanks for posting 

[sagii]

And the guy on the cover of Romantic Secrets 24 looks alot like the guy from this Baker sample art in the Art of Glamour in terms of line style

I can't let RM outdo me...

I too have a Peter Paul 4 in 1 Jumbo Comic Book, but mine has a "discontinued" stamp on the coupon.

RM and fifties: you both posted all your Thing!s back on page 2.  But it's nice to see them again.

Peter Paul Candy Company (Mounds, Almond Joy) of New Haven working with Charlton of Derby. Two Connecticut companies teaming up for the good of children everywhere!

Yeah I've had one for a long time, but to make a long story short, I've scanned so many comics since 2000 that I'm more than a little burnt out, so I kinda drug my feet getting some Charlton series scanned and edited and uploaded over the years, so people got tired of waiting on me and filled in holes as they could. This book was one of them. I have since uploaded the series to DCM just a couple of months ago btw.  On another note though thanks for noticing where the original art came from. I thought I had all the Charlton covers found from other companies. Another one on the list.

Scarce in grade but odd...
