Nutty Comics 1 (1946 Fawcett) unrestored raw 4.0 (has Wolverton Art) 

Very interesting bizarre cover

This one presents as a High Grade but it has 3" tear on the bottom edge and a tiny clean bug bite that goes thru the entire interior.

The 3" tear has two tiny spots of tape holding it on the inside cover (easy to remove if you want)

Spine is excellent.  Cover and CF are snug at the staples.  Tiny stain on back cover

$40 + $5 shipping

All Top Comics 1 (1945 FOX) 1st Cosmo Cat - Unrestored raw 5.0 - 5.5

Nice comic except for the 1 flaw.  Spine is excellent.  Cover and CF are snug at the 1 staple (WWII era comic)

2 "star stamps" on front cover.

Comic is not pressed or cleaned... and I think all the little flaws will get pressed out on this one.  Still, I'm not sure if the grade can go higher with the small piece missing at the bottom.

$60 $50 $43 $38 +$5 shipping

SOLD

Sparkler Comics 62 (1946 United Features) - unrestored raw 7.0-7.5

Gorgeous comic.  Gorgeous Spine.  The creases you might see on the covers all appear to be a manufacturing flaw. What looks like a small tear at the top of the back cover is not a tear, it's a tiny 1/4" crease.

"27" is grease penciled near the pig.

Cover & CF are snug at the staples.

Comic has not been cleaned or pressed, and looks like it can be improved

$60 $50 + $5 shipping

SOLD

Children's Big Book (nn) 1945 (Dorene Pub) unrestored raw 5.5

This is a square bound comic.  The staples can be seen pressing up thru the cover both front and back, and the lower staple just barely popped thru on the front cover 1/8"

Spine is excellent.  It feels like it may have never been read.  Interior is excellent.

Comic has not been cleaned or pressed

$20 $17 + $5 shipping

1-staple WWII comic.  Cover and CF are snug at the staple.
