War Battles #8 (Harvey; Oct 1952).  Grade = 3.0 GD/VG ow-wh.  Price = $6.
Another flying bodies cover, this time by Lee Elias.  Al Avison, Joe Certa, and Manny Stallman story art.  Moderate cover wear.  Light moisture-related rippling along right edge.  Inside covers are tan (but still completely supple).
