British Update: Confidential Romances/Confidential Stories – Len Miller Love Anthologies with Matt Baker Art
*Vintage UK/Australian Reprints of US Material: From the 1950s stable of the indefatigable Len Miller, re-packer of US comics, we have a selection of seven issues of Confidential Romances, which became Confidential Stories (we think – as with so many 1950s British titles, the timelines are a matter of conjecture.) Behind original – and generally rather unpromising – cover illustrations, five of these seven issues feature the works of the superb team of Dana Dutch and Matt Baker, writer & artist for St. John publishing, who gave us tales with come-on titles like ‘Road to Disgrace!’, ‘Menace to Marriage!’ and ‘I Hired A Gigolo!’. Issues newly stocked from #2 to #36, averaging VG condition. Illustrated: #18 FN £20 (3 Matt Baker stories), and #22 VG £15 (6 Matt Baker stories plus clumsily-traced Baker cover!). SORRY, THESE HAVE NOW SOLD
