Romantic Marriage #4
In "What Price Beauty?", a poignant 1950 Ziff-Davis romance, newlyweds Elaine and Carl face a crisis when Elaine’s honeymoon is marred by an accident that leaves her face slightly scarred. Fearing she’s lost Carl’s love, she secretly tries to steer him toward Margaret, the strikingly similar daughter of his boss—only to find herself in a life-or-death moment when her car crashes into one carrying Carl and Margaret. Arthur Peddy’s expressive art, inked by Bernard Sachs, brings emotional weight to this tender tale of insecurity, sacrifice, and unexpected reunion, all captured in Norman Saunders’ evocative cover.
