Supersnipe V2 #3

Dust shadow upper edge FC, small tear  near spine lower  edge FC,  small piece out upper spine. 
Here's where it gets weird. There are  three (Yes, THREE) staples along the spine  offset a bit into the BC.
The lower on matches up perfectly, I suppose it's possible that it's original, but  the upper staple doesn't 
do so, it's obviously a stranger in town, and the center staple is an invader, lol 
I suspect it's been pressed,  and  the front cover mebbe trimmed to boot. 
With all that being said,  it's flat,  tight (With three staples it had better be!) glossy, white pages. 

In spite of it all  I'm asking  $35  SOLD!

Jet Fighters 5 (#1),  Toth art

Tiny split lower spine,   chip out upper spine,  tiny tear lower edge FC, large dogear lower  RH FC,  upper spine  pulled.
Small  chips off lower edge  BC,  1 tear LH edge  BC, small tears at lower staple BC. Bit of general wear to boot. 
Whew!  With all that said  you'd think it would look like hell,  but  it's really still a pretty copy.  Still firmly  attached 
at lower staple,  displays nicely, good gloss,   tight interior with white pages.

Asking $30

Here's one I've never seen before.  Picked up a while back from a dealer buddy,  he had several of them.  

Overseas Comics 76, 1945

Distributed for free to  servicemen overseas, this contains  Sunday Funnies reprints.  Included are  Bringing Up Father, 
Popeye,  Joe Palooka, Superman,  Tracy,  Gasoline Alley,  Buz  Sawyer,  Li'L Abner, and some  gag a day strips 
plus Cuties,  a pinup page.  Sixteen full color pages,  glued spine, just slightly larger than a GA  comic.  Fits inside 
a GA bag, although just barely,  and is about a quarter inch taller than the standard backing board.  Reminds me very much of 
a Spirit  section. 
This one is a beauty,  flat, tight,  white pages. 

Asking $75

general wear. 

Asking  $35  SOLD!
