Superman #1 (1939)

[ChiSoxFan]

True, although the MPE has 3 staples too.

 

Thanks for the info about the staples. Any other differences with the MPE?

 

The 1939 Superman #1 was the 22nd book in the submission to be graded. What could the other 21 books in the submission be? I've always found it odd/interesting that mega keys aren't walk-throughs that have serial numbers ending in 001.

 

The way it works, the serial number in this submission prior to this one would be 0038923021, correct?

 

If so, that's a 8.0 copy of Tec 38, blue label. The first book in that submission would have been an Action #2, 7.0 blue. It looks like a batch of mega keys.

You're absolutely right.

I think there are differences on the BC with the # of "starburst" lines around superman, in addition the inside back cover has only a partial address for mail order the reprint I think is missing the suite number.
