Captain Marvel Adventures #nn (#1) (Fawcett, 1941) CGC VG/FN 5.0 Cream to off-white pages. This is the highest-graded unrestored copy that CGC has certified! So you can see the validity of Overstreet's assertion that the book is "rarely found in Fine or Mint condition" because it was printed on poor paper stock. We see this issue much less than the other Fawcett keys, and as one of Overstreet's Top 30 Golden Age books, it's an issue we can't get enough of. At its height, this series was the bestselling comic in America, with total sales for the 1944 issues surpassing 14 million copies! It even went biweekly to meet demand at one point. This is the one and only issue of the title to have Jack Kirby art, and it was drawn on the "night shift" at the time Kirby was working on Captain America by day. This first issue's cover art is by C. C. Beck. This book was not present in most of the noted "pedigree" collections, and note that the next highest-graded copy on CGC's census is a 3.5. Overstreet 2008 VG 4.0 value = $5,500; FN 6.0 value = $8,250. CGC census 4/08: 1 in 5.0, none higher. From the Kylberg Collection.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:41019
