Up for auction is a nice looking mid-grade book with good color, some gloss, and light cover wear.  The spine shows some wear with minor color loss.  There are no spine splits.  Corners are blunted.  There is a light crease across the green figure that breaks color.  The first page has a date in ink in the top margin.  There is light tanning on the interior covers.  The back cover is in good condition (see photos). 

Cover is well attached at both staples but pulling a bit.  Centerfold is well attached at both staples.

This book presents nicely in the Mylar.  This is a complete copy with no missing pages, no coloring, no owner’s name scribbled across the cover, no date stamps (on the cover), no cut-outs or clipped coupons.  All defects listed are allowed in this grade.

This is a nice Golden Age copy in hand that is supple with good color and has some great stories and artwork from Paul Reinman, Joe Orlando, and a cool cover from Sol Brodsky!  What a lineup!!

Note:  Please do not bid without examining the photos!

No color touch or restoration has been detected.  I’ve been collecting comics since 1964 and grade the entire book strictly by Overstreet standards.  I keep all of my high value books in Mylar with archival board and will include that for free.  

I combine shipping by weight so wait for my invoice before paying if buying multiple items.  I only ship to the lower 48 states.  I'll ship Priority Mail for this book.  Shipping cost includes full insurance for Priority Mail.  Books over $750 require a signature for delivery.  I pack securely with cardboard reinforcement in bubble wrap in a box/mailer.  I will ship within two days of payment.  Due to the high cost of shipping I do not accept returns.  This also prevents villains from returning a different book.  As a collector I will do my best to disclose all defects which will affect the grade or desirability.   Payment is expected within 2 days. 

Please check out my other auctions and thanks for stopping by.  Excelsior!!
