What is weird about this issue and I dont know if typical of this title but unlike the large size of other golden age comics this is about the size of a modern comic. And it is thicker about 64 pages I think

6.5...I owned a Young Allies (#16 I believe) that was similar in size to a modern as well. I don't think a smaller size was entirely unheard of for certain books. Where's Bob when you need 'em? hm

I've seen a few 1945 and later books that I thought were trimmed when I first saw them as their dimensions were much closer to moderns than early Golden Age, but came to realize that there is a wide variety of widths to books from that era - even from the same publisher and sometimes print run - quality control was almost non-existent back then.
