Description

When it comes to Golden Age comic books dating from the WWII era, the surviving population is so small, that you take what you can get. In this case, the getting is pretty darn good. Presented is a 12/41 Timely Comics Marvel Mystery Comics #26 issue, graded 4.5, Light Tan to Off-White Pages by best in the business CGC. Evidence of the supply side scarcity can be found on CGC's Population Report, which cites a scant forty-three examples of this issue encapsulated in Universal Grade holders to date. The mid-level rating for this comic is more than satisfying, and creative contributions from Joe Simon, Jack Kirby, Alex Schomburg and others, make this one all the more exciting. Label notes are "Burgos, Everett, Thompson, Simon and Kirby stories and art, Ray Gill story, Paul Gustavson art, Alex Schomburg cover. Parrot appearance in Human Torch story.".
