Teen-Age Romances was an American romance comic series produced by St. John Publications. Each issue was a series of one-shot stories involving a wide cast of characters. The first three issues began with a standard format of five stories each, and then it branched out to various larger numbers.
Teen-Age Romances, one of a late-1940s spate of romance comics, ran 45 issues, cover-dated January 1949 to December 1955. Released by St. John Publications, with at least two issues published under that publisher's Approved Comics imprint, it included among its artists Lily Renée and Matt Baker. Many stories were written by Dana Dutch.
Issues #4-8 (Aug. 1949 - Feb. 1950) carried photographic covers, and issues #26-30 (Nov. 1952 - March 1953) used painted covers, rather than standard penciled-and-inked drawn covers.
