Funky Monkey Comics

When is the submission deadline for mail-ins? Thank you!

I was thinking it is probably between a 2.0-3.0. The staple is detached completely at the bottom, I can confirm that. Would you get it pressed and/or graded?

Hey everyone! I picked this book up at a local flea market today. I know it is in rough shape, but what are your thoughts on the grade? It does have a slight spine roll, one of the interior pages is dog eared, and the cover is detached at the bottom staple (but not at the top staple). I picked it up because I liked the cover and I love old Golden Age random books like this! Would it be worth it to have it pressed or would this one be non-pressable? Should I get it graded? Thanks in advance!

If you are really interested in her story, if you Google her name and click on the "News" tab on Google, you can see some things we have done here recently to try to honor her memory and sacrifice.

I agree...the covers of these books are awesome! What makes them even cooler is that the stories in them are true stories. You'd think that would make people want them more. Her story is an amazing one that I didn't know about myself. A true heroine.

Just logged in to check up on the grade on this book and I was very surprised...according to the system, it got a 9.6!! I think they also granted the File Copy status to it, at least that is how I interpret it. Thoughts? I was thinking maybe 9.0-9.2 on the grade, but I'll take the 9.6!!

I agree! They are some very beautiful comics!!

The cool story about this cover and this comic is that the woman on the front was a real person named Mary Frances Housley. She was a graduate from the school that I teach at. She was a flight stewardess/attendant for National Airlines and she died after saving 10 people from a burning plane...Flight 83, which she was working, crashed at Philadelphia International Airport on January 14, 1951. I got the comic because I'm working on trying to share her story and get it out there. I'm also trying to put together a collection of artifacts/photos/documents on her life for our local museum. This copy I will be holding on to for a while though. I purchased a lower grade copy for the museum for the time being. If you Google her, you can read more about her story. Here is a real photo of her.

Thanks! Yeah it does have a small crease that breaks color slightly. I didn't scan the book myself before shipping it to CGC, these are the scans from eBay when I purchased it. It does have "150" written on the back. Do you think this has anything to do with it being a file copy? Doesn't make much sense why that would be there. The guy I bought it from got it in a file copy lot from Heritage Auctions.

Thoughts on the grade on this copy of New Heroic Comics #68 from Eastern Color, September, 1951? Thanks in advance!

I had a Sig. Series Fast Track submitted on 9-20-16 and it is in queue to be shipped.

I just mailed two books into CCS for a fast track pressing then they will go to CGC. so I'll probably get mine around Christmas or after the New Year.
