All American #28 1941 …at least that is what it says on the cover, the indicia says #27) Perhaps this is a rare oddity! \(shrug\) Stories are consistent with the ones listed on the GCD as #28, as is the cover. Nice colors, nice pages, unfortunately the Centerfold is missing and that affects the Dr. Midnite story. Green Lantern, Red White and Blue, the Atom, Sargon, Hop Harrigan and Red Tornado are complete. Grade is Incomplete. (good Guide is $193) bin is $60

 

 

 

 

All-American 46, Scarce, there are only 4 of these books on the census. Great color, GL, Sargon, Hop Harrigan, Dr Midnite (he helps the son of a murdered policeman join the force) Red White and Blue and the RED Tornado….the pail on her head always makes me laugh;)

Pages are OW/W, there is a 1 inch cover spine split, and the inside of the cover has some tanning. Small staple tears, but they are attached. Centerfold is not attached. Greade is VG (4.0) but a nice looking one. OSG is $222, bin Is $160.

Detective 97, 1945, great color, great pages in the white range. I love the cover. There appears to be some fairly well done amateur restoration to 2 corners of the front cover. Two small piece replacements you can see in the picture. I don’t see color touch added and I don’t think the cover was cleaned.. There is a tiny tear on the back cover that was not fixed, so I’m not sure why they fixed the pieces. There is a name stamp on the first page. The book now is an apparent Fine+ but it probably was a nice Gd/VG before the fixing, so that’s how I’m going to price it. OSG in Gd/VG is $135, bin is $95.00 SOLD TO MENATOR

Exciting Comics #8, Nedor, Schomburg Cover with Gorillas! 1940. 6 on the cgc census, one is qualified.

In the son of the gods story, the theme is about Honululu being vulnerable to enemy attack…interesting since the attack was not until 1941. The Sphrinx features a “wealthy Sophisticate” who also happens to be a crime fighter (Holy Batman!).

Colors are excellent. The front cover is nice, but there is a small piece of white tape at the top and a small piece lower back. A 1” spine split at the bottom, small tear in the middle of he spine and there is a corner missing lower right. Some light tanning on the inside cover. Upper staple is detached from the cover and the centerfold. Bottom one staple is holding, there are some tears at the top of the back covedr and some penciled writing.. Pages are off-white Grade is Gd/VG (3.0)maybe a little better. Bin is $175 $150
