Description

A wonder of air travel, zeppelins have made collector-prized appearances on postage stamps, coins, postcards, posters, and even a famous Heavy Metal rock band's first album cover. Zeppelin enthusiasts give your collection a big lift, with the addition of the 2/43 Timely Comics Marvel Mystery Comics #40 issue. An iconic WWII-era thriller, this issue is much sought after for Alex Schomburg's classic zeppelin cover. This high profile Golden Age comic book is adorned with a riveting scene, featuring flying fireball the Human Torch busting up a Nazi zeppelin, sending it to a watery grave, while U.S. troops furiously defend a strategic beach from a combined air, land and sea invasion. CGC has graded this important key issue comic 1.8. Slightly Brittle Pages. Label notes are "Alex Schomburg cover, Harry Sahle, Carl Pfeufer, Bob Oksner, Syd Shores and Ed Robbins art. Classic Zeppelin cover.".
