Nice.  Interesting that lately there have been a number of GA books posted that were owned by girls.

Well, women live longer so their books are just now coming to market...hm

Love Lessons #1 Harvey 1949 #beauty

Very nice metallic cover! Do you have the non-metallic cover variant?

According to the GCD database, the title was originally to be "Love Letters" but Quality Comics secured right to the title first, but Harvey was evidently not aware until the comic had been printed. Harvey's solution was to overprint the masthead on the existing comics with silver ink to obscure "Letters" and then added "Lessons" in red ink on top of the silver. Notice the heart cutout for the issue number, Harvey logo and 10 cent cutout.

Finally took the time to read this pick up from last year over the weekend and thought it deserved another mention. Where else outside of a Fox or Fiction House book would you find a Triple Threat book featuring Baker, Feldstein, and Kamen features? Cover my copy. Interiors DCM (they 'present' better that way sometimes)

I believe there are ads for it as Love Letters too in their 1949 comics.
