Classics Illustrated 3, HRN 2, first print

Earliest first print I've ever found
Unfortunately, the silverfish have been at the spine here and there, especially the lower inch and above the upper staple. 
Still flat and tight, and this one is a rerun from a previous thread, so bargain pricing,

Yours for $40

Archie Annual 2

So, this came out of the same stash as the Betty Annual with the missing pages, so I went through it extra carefully, 
it matches up perfectly with the Grnd Comics Database. Nevertheless,  I think it's been repaired. 
There are old tape stains along the spine on the back cover,   with no obvious reason they should be there, the book
is flat, square and tight. To me this implies that the cover was reattached, and maybe some work was done along
the spine strip to boot. I'm calling an audible, Glue Repairs On Spine.  With that being said, it's the nicest copy I 
ever managed to get my hands on, tight with white pages, bit of gloss left. Small tear RH edge FC

Asking $175

Talk about your tough titles. I've been chasing this one, along with Tippy Teen, for decades now. They don't come up very often, 
and seldom indeed in grade. Finally upgraded this one, this is my undercopy. Nothing horrible except the big 
dogears lower RH FC, tight, good gloss, bone white pages. 

Asking $15  SOLD!

Crackajack Funnies nn, 1937 giveaway

Listed this one before, dropping the price. Take a look at the scans, the lower inch of the book is a hot mess, 
but the rest of it is durned nice. Doesn't someone need a nice filler at a bargain price?
O'street lists it at about $100 in G, snap this one up while you can

Asking $30  SOLD!

Dark Mysteries 17

 Spine taped along the entire interior, rubbing and creasing FC, general wear. Some chipping on edges inside, 
tight with cream - offwhite pages.  I have yet to see a nice copy of this one in hand, although I'm sure they're out
there somewhere. Qute the skeleton cover, eh? :D 

Asking $200, don't care if I sell this one or not.

Katzenjammer Kids 25
Odd little Harvey title that ran a few issues in the 1950's

This one has a weird little flaw. The  leading edge of the centerfold is up out of the book, the staples are offset
into the back cover, and the CF is creased at the staples, not at the spine. Sticks out of the book a bit. 
You could prob'ly fix it in three minutes with a hot iron, I didn't bother. 
Bit of general wear, that overambitious centerfold, otherwis tight and glossy, white pages

Asking $15
