Tell Your Loved One "Giddiyap, Sweetie!" on Valentines Day!

Valentine's Day is almost upon us, and nothing says "I Love You" like gunpowder, horse blankets, and guys who don't bathe for days, right?
Right?
Someone sure thought so back in the 1950s, when two of the most popular genres--romances and Westerns were combined into Western romances (or Romantic Westerns) in both prose fiction and comics.
True Love Comics Tales™ has digitally-restored and remastered the best of the comic cover art from that all-too-brief shining period of American literature for a new line of Valentine's Day goodies including greeting cards, diaries, teddy bears, even shirts, tops, and, well...bottoms for men and women at...
Just the thing for the cowboy or cowgirl in your life!

Mod Love for the beach!

Our "sister" RetroBlog™ True Love Comics Tales™ has been presenting romance comic stories from the 1940s to the 1970s, and this this one from the Psychedelic '60s is one of our particular favorites!
Not only is it colorful enough to make our eyes bleed, but it's one of the few comic book stories drawn by a famous fine artist,  French pop artist Michel Quarez. when he was already established as a "fine artist"!
In most cases, like Presidential portrait painter Everett Raymond Kinstler,  the artist's comics work is part of their "misspent youth" period. (Although Kinstler happily acknowledges his comics work HERE!)

At any rate, we liked the cover art so much that we've put it on a line of kool kollectibles absolutely perfect for use as beachwear or summer loungewear!
You can also find the actual story pages on...
or
RetroKool or what?
