Classics Illustrated #29  
1/6d scarce British/New Zealand issue from 1960-61  
The PRINCE and the PAUPER 
by Mark Twain. 
Later (and 'harder to find') near-65 year old Swedish printing 
with beautiful Painted Cover (HRN 141)....
Arnold Hicks art. 
Printed in English for the British Commonwealth
(New Zealand variant).     

VG/Fine copy (5) Nice sharp, tight and bright book. 
Strongly on staples and has good gloss retention and
clean/sharp white to o/w pages. 
Clean throughout and great colouring, but
it has a one inch spine split (halfway down spine). 
This, plus a small spine reseal at the bottom and a
sticker price removal, stops this lovely book grading
much higher. 
Photos will show lighting issues so contact me if
unsure of anything, or need further information. 
 .      

Low Buy it Now for what is certainly one of the
scarcer printings from the British and Commonwealth
CI editions...
with just £2.45 for secure p&p within the UK and fair rate
to abroad (approx $16 for tracked shipping). 
I COMBINE POSTAGE for multi purchases of my items.   

Please see in my (approx 100) vintage eBay comic auctions some
other Classics Illustrated, with many scarce US 1st editions soon 
to be listed, and other scarce, and rare, British editions.  

Please compare this copy (or copies) with similar copies in similar grades being sold on eBay worldwide, as well as through dealerships, collectors, conventions, internet stores and other internet or postal auction sites, before bidding on this, as I am confident I can provide the best and most cost effective transaction for you.

Grading
Notes:
Unless otherwise stated above in the description, all comics are
complete and free of major defects relating to:
large rips/tears, pieces missing (including small bits out, right up to coupon and/or page removal), heavy marks and stains,
heavy creasing, bad spine splits, repairs or restoration, tape, glue and so on.  
And, again unless it is mentioned in the above description, all comics are generally:
structurally solid/tight, flat, supple, securely on staple(s) with attached covers and firm complete spines, and with
tight intact clean o/w or creamy pages.

Degrees of wear and minimal defects are naturally to be expected in accordance with the age and grade, but there will be no nasty surprises
CONTACT ME, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, BEFORE BUYING OR MAKING AN OFFER. 

Grading generally follows professional lines from Poor (0.5) to Mint (10). 
For example.....Fair/FR (1), Good/G (2), Very Good/VG(4), Fine/F (6), Very Fine/VF (8), and Near Mint/NM (9.4) 
I use CGC and Overstreet grading criteria as strictly as possible, and based on the experience I have had with both
dealers and collectors over many years, whilst amassing my collection.

Please read the following before bidding:

Payment within 48 hours please, or communicate within 2 days if you wish to pay via alternatives.  
See PAYMENT METHODS, ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS and my RETURNS policy.  

ALL items, unless specified otherwise, will be sent securely protected and by 'recorded/tracked and/or signed for' delivery both within the UK and to other countries, incl the USA.

I am gradually selling off my American and British comic book collections on eBay so please check my feedback
for grading and delivery satisfaction.
 

Note that photos/scans are as detailed and accurate as possible but may not display the impression 100%. 
The shown item, however, is the one I am selling (not some stock or random picture).

You may sometimes see 'Like New' as my item description, or 'No returns on this item'.  It's an eBay glitch. 
Comics and books I'm selling are 'USED' and I DO have a Full Returns Policy!
