Comics.org has some interesting notes on the cover artist for that issue.

http://www.comics.org/issue/211759/

 

Was also reprinted on Our Love Story 33 cover...

Indexer Notes

 

Pencils originally credited to Ron Wilson, changed by Nick Caputo on December 23, 2010, based an interview by Ron Wilson in Back Issue, who noted that his first cover was published some eight months later (Supernatural Thrillers # 4)

 

Someone pointed out that the hovering face is taken (or pasted) from Jim Starlin's opening splash on the interior story.

Nice detective work. I guess the cover was Frankensteined together. And it explains why Starlin got a cover credit from some sources.

Hit the NYCC today and picked up some great BA Marvel romance from Dale Roberts.

 

He's got a pretty sharp My Love 14, for anybody who's looking. I told him it ought to be a wall book!

Went to a store today having a huge sale. They had just received a collection of the brightest, whitest, glossiest BA marvel romance and Millie books I had ever seen. Structurally, many approached 9.8s. Big foxing issues, as well as staining on some of the must stunning copies. I was able to salvage these.

Sweet haul!

I always liked that Falling in Love 121 cover. I thought it was Mortimer, but GCD suggests DeZuninga!

Young Love 79 has some great Alex Toth artwork.  It's part of a serial that also runs through Secret Hearts.

Were these from that eBay seller nationalartifact in Montclair, NJ?

Nope, they were all bought from the boards from nochips.

Here are my pick-ups from last October's NYCC (all from Dale Roberts) and a few books I picked up from comics4less on eBay last year.

I'm having trouble finding white covers that aren't tanning!

Our Love Story 13 is one of the most difficult Marvel BA 25 centers to find in grade. Took me years to find one and you have a great copy!
