Teen-age Romances v1 #9, 1950 - Matt Baker contributes two tales in this issue: a materialistic girl convinces men to buy her nice things and a cheerleader plays the field with little thought to the consequences. Both are sumptuously drawn with his typical smooth, flowing lines. Baker also does a large illustration of similar quality for the issue's sole text story. A bit less impressive is
Joe Kubert's work on "Magnificent Deception", a tale of a rising starlet torn between two different men. His inking only brings marginal improvement to the pencils. All four stories (which were later reprinted in
Diary Secrets #17) are packaged within an attractive Baker cover. Read the brown-haired woman's inadvertently sexual comment to get a chuckle. Other artists in this golden age comic include Hy Rosen. This is 1 of 1
