OK, the thing that makes this particular copy so important is that the evidence of the crime IS RIGHT ON THE COVER!

You see, the attempted assault took place in January at 2 A.M.  !!

Where's a gumshoe when you need one?

Did the distributor forget to change the time/date on his stamp or is this an example of the 1940s work ethic? hm

 The time I got up and was rendered temporarily frozen!! My body robbed of its sense of sight all because of Bedrocks unbelievably luminous copy of Blue Beetle 54!! Like opening your eyes to find you are staring directly into the Center of the SUN!!! Sweet book man you could light up room with that thing haha!! 

 

The most amazing thing about this book is that I bought it from John Verzyl...

...and actually got a good deal!!!!

Yeah, trading the Church Cap 1 for it was an interesting deal all right.  :)

SCIENCE has yet to determine the who, what, where, why, and how these creatures came to be but we have established they had a wonderful Dental plan ? AWESOME BOOK DUDE!!!

One of the best.  Science 2-4 may be my favorite run in all the Fox output.

so pretty.  big congrats!

Thanks everyone for the enthusiastic response!

I got this book from the recent Berk "warm-up band" auction at ComicConnect. The price was very reasonable; whether it was the Berk effect, or maybe everyone burnt out (cashed out) by the time Science 3 landed on the auction block, or maybe the "TRADE THIS AT MILES 2nd HAND STORE Davenport, Iowa" stamp on the top front cover and in at least a couple places on the back cover, who knows. And thanks to one of the boardies who convinced me (sort of) to bid on this book in the first place. It really is quite nice in hand.

I got the carpet in Morocco. I agree, great colors!! I might be selling the carpet at the next CC "Special Event" Carpet Bazaar Auction. (that's CC for CarpetConnect :D )
