The month that Marvel published Love Romances #88 Condition: FN, which is up for auction in the 2023 October 26 – 27 Romance Comics Featuring L. B.
The cover featured story of Love Romances #88, Yesterday's Kisses, was drawn by Dick Giordano. Interestingly, GCD tentatively credits the inks for this cover to both Vince Colletta and Giordano.
