ITEM DESCRIPTION  


SUPERMAN 1940 DC comic book cut out punch out Saalfield paper doll superhero

$1,500.00

Saalfield issued this VERY EARLY book in a few formats.....red or blue covers, stiff paper or thin cardboard, and apparently 4 or 6 pages.

This is the blue cover, thin cardboard, 6 page version. It should have 61 pieces but 4 are missing.....3 from the same page --Lex Luthor, and 2 VERY small pieces--Clark Kent glasses, Lois Lane hat (shown in my 1st photo lower right) and a cowboy from the back cover (shown in my 1st photo middle bottom row, above the "stop" sign). A photo of a complete example is shown in my last photo (courtesy of L&L Collectibles) for reference only.

As added extras, there is the Superman logo piece from the front cover and oddly, a duplicate of the lightning cloud from the back cover upper right. Also the Superman figure from the front cover is missing one fold back tab.

Condition overall is good to very good. This collection was originally stuck to scrapbook pages with small pieces of clear tape. In some cases , removal took some surface paper with it. There are a few archival tissue repairs to weak fold back tabs and other splits. Whoever owned this in the past also wrote the page # on the back of each piece in pencil. Also the pieces were punched out pretty well and carefully, but not flawlessly.

LOOK CAREFULLY at all photos. Fronts and backs of all pieces are shown.
I have been buying character paper and comics since the 70s and this is the most complete punched example I have ever seen.

NOTE--Heritage recently got $7000+ for a high grade, graded example. And ungraded examples have brought $3000+ in the last 10 years.

OFFERS
---I list 20,000+ items a month on EBAY. It is easier to put Best Offer on everything but because I lose 15% to EBAY fees no matter what, I may not be willing to take offers on everything I have listed.



COMBINED SHIPPING ?
   

YES...I can do this but ONLY If you follow the below instructions.

To be clear, "combined shipping" is when you buy 3 items, for example, each with a shipping charge of $8, but since I can ship all 3 in the same box, you get charged $10-12 instead of $24.

I cannot "combine shipping" after you have already paid.

1) DO NOT USE the cel phone app ! If you do, EBAY will force immediate payment and charge you full shipping on each item. I will not refund your money if this happens.

2) You must log into EBAY with a browser (Chrome, Safari etc) on your phone, computer or laptop to avoid this.

3) Put all items in your Cart and then, while in your Cart, click the "Request Total" link. "Request Total" will not be visible if you click "Checkout" under your Cart icon. You must click "View Cart" under your Cart icon. The URL should say cart.ebay.com

Because EBAY and PAYPAL have made partial refunds so complicated, I will no longer be refunding $ if you do not follow these instructions.


MY PHOTOS-  If more than 1 item is shown in a photo---then items are in SEPARATE listings unless otherwise stated ! Read description!
