Young Men 23
Last issue before Cap and the Torch start. (Shakes fist at sky at such a cruel fate)

Front cover is reverse-spine rolled, pushed a little back around to the rear. A press would fix it, I'm thinking.
General wear, but tight, bit of gloss left, cream - offwhite pages. Small tear lower FC, couple tiny tears interior.

Asking $15  SOLD!

Flat and square, with a chip out lower FC, good sized dogear lower RH FC, some general wear. Spine strip intact but faded a bit 
Old store stamp upper RH BC, split uuper spine BC, bit of soiling along lower edge BC. Interior is nice, offwhite pages, 
one small tear, gets into the text a bit.

quarter inch square, and is lopped off in the scan. 

First issue,  bedsheet sized,  only copy I've seen. 

Asking $125

Good evening Gang!

I have a fine fat stack all scanned up and rarin' to go, so let's get started a little early.

There is a bit of soiling and a couple teensy tears LH edge BC, but that's the worst of it. 
Book is flat, tight, good gloss, minimal general wear, offwhite - white pages. 
There's a small scratch lower edge FC, and a couple NCB dogears lower RH FC, most of them would press out. 

Asking $120  SOLD!

Fantastic Four 26
Second half of the Hulk/Avengers crossover, classic Lee & Kirby as they were starting to hit their stride.

This is a Rough Reader. Complete, and the interior is actually quite solid, tight with cream - offwhite pages, 
but there's a big ol' water stain that runs through the book. Still perfectly readable, but the stain is definitely there.
Water stains and water damage to cover, large tear through logo RH edge FC, some wrinkles BC. Staples are rusty
with migration.  With that being said, it's a perfectly acceptable filler/reader.

Asking $25

Uncle Scrooge 180
DRAT! One issue off from the tough one, :D 

This is a little gem. There is a small light fold lower RH FC, would press right. I see one color break on the spine. 
That's basically it. Flat, clean, tight, glossy, white pages. I expect it would grade out at a nine point *mumble*

Asking $50
