1 year ago I started collecting this full Blue Ribbon run - many of these have single digit census numbers, so finding copies has been a challenge.  I've managed to complete my full run (but always looking for upgrades) - and along the way I've purchased upgrades to the copies below - and now I'm hoping these can find a new home for someone to enjoy.  If interested you can read a little bit more about this journey here (page 193): 

 

Now on with the sale.

Blue Ribbon Comics #4 (6/40) CGC 1.0 LT/OW pages

only 5 blues on census and only a couple sales listed in GPA ever - tough to price
