Skyman #2 CGC 3.5 (Columbia 1942) RARE Golden Age WWII Germ Warfare 1/10 Scarce
Book is over 80 years old - hard to come by in any condition... From 1942, peak of activity around the war, conserving metal / paper, etc. Super rare - "Skyman #2" from the short run of the character's lead title (was featured in Big Shot Comics, etc.). Wild cover - stopping the enemy in the midst of their germ warfare efforts - destroying bottles of anthrax, typhus, etc... Seen lots of war-related covers, this is a first.
Amazing looking book for its age. Could use a clean / press... Nice colors, lots of pop. One of just 10 total CGC graded copies (only 4 total public sales in the last several years at any grade). I've never seen another copy. Heritage, known for listing rare Golden Age books only shows 4 total listings in the last ~20 years. A rare, super-cool WW2 themed book.
This book was not
cleaned or pressed before submitting.
I will make a note and
take pics on the rare occasion I post a slab with a crack or break. Otherwise the slabs are nice = (minor scuffs,
typical with age or shipping, CGC/CBCS “allowable” stuff like newton rings,
weld seams, scuffs from shipping etc)…. to flawless. Happy to pull a book and inspect, take
additional pics, etc-just ask!
Ships USPS priority-wrapped in bubble and boxed to protect. Fully insured at no additional cost to buyer. Happy to combine shipping!
