Mysterious Stories #4, Premier Magazines, 1955. Really nice copy. Spine wear, but minimal wear to the body of the cover. Deep colors and good gloss. Pages are very nice, but there is some aging to the edges of the covers including a dust shadow on back.  Grease pencil "X" in the CCA box. Complete and attached. Only four blue labels on the census. I think this one is 4.5...maybe nicer.

Crimefighters #1, 1948, Marvel. Love this cover. Lots of spine roll, front cover pulled through bottom staple, two small pieces of tape on interior of front cover repairing a tear, rounded corners. Complete and attached. I think it’s a 2.0.

Crimefighters #2, 1948, Marvel. Another great cover. Some discoloration on the bottom staple that impacts cover and a couple wraps (not discolored at CF), 0.25-0.5” tear at bottom edge that goes all the way through, tiny splits at both top and bottom. I think it’s better than the #1, but not a lot. Maybe as high as 3.0.

Crime Fighters #13, 1954, Atlas. Last issue of the series so find a #12 and you can make a complete run. Pretty decent copy with a vertical book length crease, other minor creasing, some spine wear, pulling at the staples but still attached. I think it’s 4.0 again but maybe 4.5.

Jungle Comics #15, 1941, Fiction House. This is an amazing book that is complete, but lower grade. Cover has some minor splitting and is detached. There is a small hole in the front cover in her skirt that also impacts the first page. There is also a small hole in the back cover in the green box that impacts the last three pages. The interior is complete and attached, but the centerfold is pulled through at the bottom staple only. There is a margin tear in the back (page 57/58) that barely extends into the art with no paper missing. Presents nicely, with supple pages and no major pieces missing. I think it’s a 2.5.

Kent Blake Of The Secret Service #1, 1951, Marvel. Great looking book, but a couple big issues. First, it was manufactured without staples. Complete, but unattached…ha. There is a 2-2.5” tear in the right edge of the front cover in the red bar, there is a 1.5” split at the top, there is some paper missing on a couple pages of the interior only affecting the margin (this feels like it was production as the interior pages were not cleanly cut….maybe dull blades leading to the issue). But the blacks are deep and there isn’t a lot of surface or spine wear besides what is noted. Mylar all star. Let’s go 3.0 but looks a lot better.

Strange Journey #s 3 & 4, 1958, Farrell. This represents half of the whole series. #3 is glossy and flat, looking like a mid-grade book, but chipping impacting most edges and especially the bottom of the spine area. I have it at 3.0. #4 looks like a run of the mill VG, but chew impacts the bottom edge of the entire book. Dropping to 1.5 for that. 
 

$110 for the pair.   **NOW $99**
