catrick339 Posted October 27, 2019 Author Share Posted October 27, 2019 (edited) Let's list a few comic books, shall we? Harvey Hits 6 Featuring The Phantom Harvey did several issues of The Phantom in the 1950's, predating by a decade or better the Gold Key/Charlton series of the 60's and 70's. This copy has a bit of spine roll, several light folds upper RH FC, teensy corner of lower RH FC, general wear. Still has nice gloss, tight spine and CF, white pages. Solid lower grade copy that displays nicely. Asking $20 SOLD! Edited October 28, 2019 by catrick339 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 Archie Comics 20 Looks great, flat, tight, with just the chip out along the spine, and it IS.

You KNOW that gunsmokin is a delicate sort, and we don't need any tears dripping onto comic books, now do we?
