Description
Large Feature Comic (Series I) #5 Tarzan of the Apes (Dell, 1939) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Cream to off-white pages. The first all-Tarzan comic book. Some old school collectors call this one Black and White #5, and this one was one of the more sought after comics in the hobby in the early days (it had the same Overstreet value as Detective #1 at one time). It reprints the first Hal Foster Tarzan dailies from 1929. This is the first VF/NM copy we have offered. Overstreet 2011 VF/NM 9.0 value = $2,049; NM- 9.2 value = $2,900. CGC census 4/12: 1 in 9.0, none higher.
