*Romance: From our new Arch Collection this week, four early issues of the cross-genre title Cowgirl Romances, including #1. Published by Fiction House from 1950-1953, and with the usual high standard of art from this publisher, these tales of cowgirls on the range and the loves they won and lost are full of action, adventure and, um, romance. With story titles such as Beneath the Outlaw Moon, The Bride Wore Buckskin, Senorita Six-Gun and Rose Of Mustang Mesa, these offer a unique perspective on two classic genres.
