Girls' Romances #128 (On Sale: August 24, 1967) has an interesting cover by Jay Scott Pike.Inside we begin with "I Wish I Could Love You" by persons unknown, followed by "Don't Stop Loving Me" a reprint from Secret Hearts #69 by Arthur Peddy and Bernard Sachs. Lastly is our cover story, continued from last issue: "We'll Never Meet Again Part II" drawn by Jay Scott Pike.
As usual we have not a lot of detail in the romance books. However, there is something I find interesting about this particular book.
The "arms held back, breasts pushed forward" shot utilized on this cover was a popular one over the years. Check out this beautiful Neal Adams All-Star Western cover for another example. In the interior of this book the wonderful and never forgotten Gray Morrow did another version of this scene which also prominently featured an incredible thrusting chest.Edited by Barbara Friedlander.

Yeah, I have them all. Great artwork on these books: Adams, Aparo, DeZuniga, Kane, Morrow and Weiss. If only they could have gotten an El Diablo issue by Al Williamson!
