'WOW" Comics 21 from Bell - centerfold?

[surfer02-migration]

Hello, I recently acquired 'WOW" Comics issue 21 from Bell Publications in Canada.

 

While flipping through the book I noticed between pages 16-17 there were 4 pages that were missing. Looked like they had been cut out by scissors. Were they centerfold pages?

 

Can anyone tell me how this will affect the grade?

 

Thanks!

There is a Canadian Golden Afe comics thread,the gang there could , should be able to help.

Do you have the cover?Do you know how many stories are affected?

The books is complete and cover is firmly attached.

Complete besides the missing pages do you mean?What is the total page count?

Also,sometimes the stories started on the inside cover,and were also sometimes printed right up to the back inside cover,throwing page counts off for some.

The books has all story pages 1-48 complete - with the missing pages between story pages 16-17.

Possible that nothing is missing and pp. 16-17 were tipped in as half sheets?

I'm not sure..I'm wondering if that is how the book was manufactured?So you say it does not affect story pages...I'm stumped.I know board member Bronty has a focus on Bell publications,he may be able to tell you more.I've a keen interest in Canadian books,but am a newer fish in the pond.Wish I could help more,best of luck.

Your comic is complete.

 

That is a bindery defect with the strips of what looks like excised pages. (thumbs u
