Young Love #76

Young Love #76 (On Sale: July 10, 1969) has a cover by, I would guess, Dick Giordano. He certainly inked this beauty.

We start with "Memo: To My Love," penciled most likely by Winslow Mortimer. Unrequited office romance is the theme of this story when Maggy is in love with her boss, but he asks every other girl in the office on dates except her.

Next is "To Bill... With Love," which is reprinted from Secret Hearts #41 and penciled by Mike Sekowsky, or so they say. the office romance theme continues as Martha and Bill have been dating for years, but don't plan to get married until Bill is established in his career. Bill's co-worker, Irene, has designs on him and Martha fears that she and Bill may never be married at all.

We end with an untitled Lisa St. Claire story (Chapter Eight), inked with his usual attention to detail (that's a joke folks) by Vinnie Colletta.  Private investigator Steve Finch is pursuing Lisa, but as usual she believes he's only interested in her money. However, she knows he can't be as bad as the man her father has picked out for her.

Edited by Dick Giordano.

I love the covers with motorcycles! I don't have this one, but I need it!
