Key Age Comic from, getting harder to find.  A quick glance at the cover & it looks like a VF 8.0, but it has some noted wear with a closer look. Cover colors are sharp & maintains luster, but has a moderate soft crease at right and a tiny micro hole (from a pin or needle coming from the back cover through the comic to the front cover. See video).  Spine is solid with moderate handling. Back cover has lower left side crease and stain at top & wear at edges.  Interior of cover has tanning but is tightly attached. The pages are O/W but have great color and images. Someone apparently had pressed a pin or something over this comic from the back at one time and so a tiny pin hole goes from back to front cover, but not visible unless you hold to light, we literally did not see it until we did. The video says a staple, but after looking over there no second hole, so just a pin.

Kind of a tough one to grade, but we still think it hits the 5.5 Fine- level.  You can judge for yourself by pictures taken.  Let us know if you have questions.

When offering an opinion on a comic's grade or condition, we try to utilize the more accepted and common grading standards used by professional grading services with a somewhat conservative lean.  In addition, we try to detail the overall condition of a comic, including interior pages along with the cover.  Likewise, we try to show multiple interior page photos to further assist you in determining what you feel a comic's condition and value may be.  Finally, we always suggest that buyers use their own opinions on grading and value and not our own.  While we have never had a legitimate complaint on our descriptions of comics or other collectibles, antiques and other items we sell, we are not perfect. 

Please look over all the pictures & video (if available) taken for your consideration and use the zoom feature if needed.  They are to allow you to determine what you feel a book's condition & value may be. 

We try to start our auction (or priced) listings below reasonable market value based on our observations & sales information (price guides & online sales) available, but we know all people are free to judge as they feel is correct.  Note also, occasionally comics may be selling higher or lower than guide values due to market changes, death of artists, film releases or other factors.  All value is ultimately determined by what buyers are willing to pay, based on their opinions.

95% of our Comics are sold as part of a private collection amassed by a consignor covering 40 years of 1940's-1980's comics. Over 1,000 #1's or 1st Issues coming as time goes by.  Collector focused on #1's. This is a consignor & not our own collection.  Many from his collection have been bagged and put away for over 30 years.  We have already sold over 300 #1's including the X-Men #1 (1963), Iron Man #1, Aqua Man #1, Archie #1, Peanuts #1, Mickey Mouse #1, Captain America #1, lots of 1950's TV Genre #1's and dozens more #1 Super Heroes, rare War Comics, Disney, Sci-Fi, Horror, Super Scarce Goldies, and other.  We will keep listing as time allows and we are just scratching the surface.

Let us know if you have questions.  We can (and do) bundle comics for discounts & shipping savings as well.  If you buy more than one comic or items and would like bundled shipping, let us know prior to paying.  This allows us to invoice you and properly insure items & saves you quite a bit on shipping.  If you buy only one comic, just pay & we will get your comic on the way to you.

We ship quickly & with great care.  Comics will be bagged, boarded & double boxed for protection & fully insured.  We do not require signature upon delivery on comics above $100 unless you request it or if it is required by shipping service due to value.  Comics above $1,000 will be shipped FedEx for insurance purposes.  We ship Priority International to Canada unless otherwise requested.
