For sale is Marvel Mystery #20, 1941, Schomburg,war/Nazi cover. Origin of the Angel. Ad for Cap 3 on the back.

As for the grade, I'd say it's an apparent Fine+ (6.5 )with slight A and maybe a chance at an apparent Fine/VF (7.0.) Price is $1025.00 $899 Take off 3% if you pay by check or MO.

 

It's really nice in person. Pages are very supple, probably OW , but I've been sending in books that I think are OW that are coming back lighter. Should be in that range though.

 

Cover colors are brilliant...but there is slight color touch at the top staple. I think the color can be removed . A small piece would have to be cut, but I won't do that, it's as is.. I see it at the upper staple, but not the top right, that appears to be a scanner artifact. However, I'm not a super expert. There is what I believe to be a drop of glue at the bottom staple. I think that could be removed as well. I've owned this for a while and never felt the need to fix it.

 

 

 

 

There are 3 pieces of tape on the inside of the spine, about 1.5 inch each. Looks like they were put there as protection, but the cover might have been removed to put them there. I THINK but do not know, that the tape is archival. It's not staining.

 

The book came from an OO collection and the owner fixed up some of them. He bought them for 10 cents and he played with them. He was pretty careful.

 

I was not planning on selling this, but I'm doing some kitchen upgrades and ...I keep picking out the too expensive stuff, (hence the granite;). I'll probably sell a few more books to trade for my upgrades;) It will take me a while to figure out what I can part with.

When you sent me that box of Jimmies, how come this wasn't in there, too? :grin:

Jimmies are those chocolate sprinkles you put on ice cream cones;)

Ice Cream cones? :o
