Love at First Sight #16
In "No Love in the Bargain," a 1952 gem from Ace Magazines, beautiful chorus girl Monica marries playboy Mort, only to be abandoned after a drunken accident scars her face. Rebuilt by plastic surgeon Russell, Monica reinvents herself as a masked dancer—until he returns to see the results of his work. Bill Walsh’s art brings the emotional highs and lows to life, while Alice Kirkpatrick’s striking cover captures the story’s haunting romance.
