Lovers' Lane #29
In "Test of Love," a poignant 1952 story from Lovers' Lane #29, widow Mary struggles to care for her two children after her husband’s death in Korea. When a new suitor, Charles, grows uncomfortable around the kids and pressures her to send them away, Mary must choose between love and loyalty to her family. The issue’s emotional core is grounded in quiet moments and tough decisions, with Bob—an old Army friend of her late husband—offering a new kind of hope. Cover by ?; typeset captions.
