Scarcest and/or best cover by title and publisher

[MrBedrock]

#41 only has 11 graded copies and only 7 are Universal with the best copy at 9.0.

 

I'm pretty sure that makes MMC #41 the scarcest Schomburg MMC to find.

Now that's a beauty!

What do people think of same for Fight?

 

Except for the 1st issue (the only one I own in the early numbers), extremely tough but I'm not sure where the scarcity cut-off is.

I don't know scarcity as far a Fight Comics, and I am sure there are some cheesecake covers that many folks covet (as well as the decapitation cover), but for my money Fight 5 is the coolest cover of the run...

 

I agree. Can I join your gang?

Possibly this one?

Issues of Crime Mysteries are generally tough to find, so it's hard to determine relative scarcity. But this is a strong candidate and arguably the stand out cover in the run (assuming you are into blood drainage covers!)

...and the same might be said of this one...

...and here is a tough Jungle though perhaps some others in the teens are equally scarce...

No question this is the scarcest Namora - based on their own sales Heritage place this among the ten scarcest Timelys.

We all know Catmans are tough and this is probably close to being the rarest - probably second - but it is far and away my fave.

 

 

[Flex Mentallo]

Is this the toughest issue? I dont know but surely the most powerful cover.

You are killing it today, Michael! Great books!

 

Any thoughts on the scarcest Rangers? Is it #2 with only 2 graded copies? All the lower numbered Rangers (except #1) are pretty low in census numbers.

[Flex Mentallo]

Rangers #1-#4 all seem really scarce - I no longer have any of those to show, alas!

Love that Terrific 5 almost had the Overstreet copy years ago and was outbid at the last moment been on the radar since.Big Apple to boot.Nice Michael!

always nice to break out the "miscellaneous box"

 

How about that Zolnerowich?

Not sure what the Gerber rating is on this book but I never see this for sale.

[comicjack]

I have seen your post on that book before ,that is a very cool cover for 1941..

Jon - it was your posts that turned me on to early Ace books a while ago. But they are frustratingly scarce. Patience is the watchword!
