    Uncle Scrooge FC #386 (#1) and FC #456 (#2) 1952 Dell Publishers

    Here is a rare treat for Scrooge and Barks fans. Both first two issues as a lot. FC #456 is the definitive origin of Scrooge and really sets up the character. Both are great reads.

    These have problems... FC #386 was severly trimmed years ago some Bozo. It is trimmed all the way to the edge of the interior panels. Art is un-affected but what a bummer...FC #456 is a lot better a solid good with no trimming.

    Was Grab a reader's bargain for $100.

    Now $85. Beat or not, this is a steal!
