Vintage Classics Illustrated Junior comic book published by Famous Authors, Ltd., which was a division of Gilberton Company, Inc. or Gilberton Publications. This is The Elf Mound comic book, No. 556 (Number 556), with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside November 1958. Under the title on both the cover and first page it lists the author of the story, Hans Christian Andersen. We think this is a first edition of this comic. The listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with the next comic in this series, No. 557 Silly Willy (HRN #557). But on half of the inside front cover there is an ad announcing, Coming Next Month, Silly Willy with a description of that comic. So we believe that the publisher added comic No. 557 Silly Willy to the list on the back cover even though this was a first edition of The Elf Mound, comic No. 556. This book is not a new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1950's and 1960's, so these are not recent reprints. The Classics Illustrated Junior comic books are generally in good/very good or acceptable reading condition but are definitely not mint, showing varying levels of age and wear which will be detailed. All were read and handled by children and thus show expected handling wear. All have interior pages which are browned at the edges, looking overall with an aged paper look, that is, the interior pages are not white as they would have been originally. All have an old comic book smell, not bad, but there if you go sniffing. Many have a child's name or initial noticeably written on the front cover in ink or crayon (and a few have more writing on the cover). For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Elf Mound comic is a very good copy overall, but does have prominent writing on the cover of a child's first and last name printed in blue ink pen under the Classics Illustrated Junior box (see image). The connect the dots picture on half of the inside front cover has been done in pencil and you can see the strong reverse imprint from this as raised lines on the front cover (you see this when looking at the cover in an angle in bright light). The coloring page on the inside back cover has not been done/is clean. The comic does have the usual age reading use/wear including on the cover lots of handling wrinkling/creasing, some crease lines with crease/cracking lines in the front colors (not really bad compared to many of the other comics we are listing), paper wear to white and creasing along the bound/stapled edge, corner creasing and tip wear in both right corners, wear/bending/creasing/chipping along the bottom and right edges (only a very little of this along the top edge), etc. The back cover has a somewhat overall dirty look, with similar wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, etc. The inside pages are basically clean, some having a little dirt, with some pin holes/small holes in some pages (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in publishing). This copy includes three pages illustrating and telling Aesop's Fables The Shepherd Goes to Sea, followed by one page telling the limerick There Was an Old Man in a Tree by Edward Lear, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Lobster on the reverse side. This collectible comic book measures about 7 x 10 1/4 inches in size. Given that this is an old or vintage comic book, we do not know what kind of ink was used in the printing (and particularly, whether any lead based inks were used). As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure. Please note that we have many other comic books listed separately for sale. If you wish to purchase more than one comic book, please e-mail us before placing the order since the shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you).

Vintage Classics Illustrated Junior comic book published by Famous Authors, Ltd., which was a division of Gilberton Company, Inc. or Gilberton Publications. This is The 3 Golden Apples comic book, No. 555 (The Three Golden Apples Number 555), with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside October 1958. It is not a first edition as the listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 568 The Happy Hedgehog (HRN #568). This book is not a new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book).

Many have a child's name or initial noticeably written on the front cover in ink or crayon (and a few have more writing on the cover). For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The 3 Golden Apples comic is a very nice copy overall, and one of the better condition ones we are listing, but does have a capital letter prominently written in crayon on the front cover top near the title (see image). The connect the dots picture on the inside front cover and the coloring page on the inside back cover are clean/have not been done/colored. The comic does have some of the usual age reading use/wear but less of it and not objectionable. In some light it looks like there is a slight darkening band along the top edge of the cover, but in other light this isn't noticeable so there is likely some wear/slight dirtiness here but nothing bad. The cover has a light large diagonal crease near the upper right corner, other light handling wear/creasing/wrinkling, some light creases along the bound/stapled edge with other paper wear to this edge, corner wear/tip bending/chipping to both right corners, wear/slight bending/wrinkling along the top and bottom edges with some wear/bending/chipping along the right side edge, etc. The back cover has a largely clean look, with a 1/4 inch tear followed by diagonal creasing along the top edge, two brown dotted lines, creasing/bending along the top edge with other tiny tears, and other slight evidence of handling wear. The inside pages are clean with all the top right corners showing evidence of curved folding or curling and some pin holes/small holes in some pages (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in publishing). This copy includes one page illustrating and telling There Was an Old Man with a Nose by Edward Lear, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Swan on the reverse side. This collectible comic book measures about 6 7/8 x 10 5/16 inches in size. Given that this is an old or vintage comic book, we do not know what kind of ink was used in the printing (and particularly, whether any lead based inks were used). As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure.

For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Enchanted Deer comic is a very good copy overall, but does have prominent writing on the cover in two places, with a child's name written in crayon near the deer and a capital letter initial written under the Classics Illustrated Junior box in blue pen ink (see image). The connect the dots picture on half of the inside front cover is clean/has not been done (but you can see here the strong reverse imprint from the capital letter written on the cover). The coloring page on the inside back cover has been about 40% colored in pencil and crayon with this done in an erratic scribbled fashion (not within the lines). The comic does have the usual age reading use/wear including on the cover some crease lines/creasing with crease/cracking lines in the front colors (not really bad compared to many of the other comics we are listing), wrinkling/handling wear, paper wear to white and creasing along the bound/stapled edge, corner creasing lines (large and small) and tip wear in both right corners, wear/bending/creasing/chipping along the top, bottom and right edges, etc. The back cover has a somewhat dirty look, with a large corner diagonal fold near the upper left corner, and similar wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, etc. The inside pages are clean with some corner fold lines and some pin holes/small holes in some pages (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in publishing). This copy includes one page illustrating and telling There Was a Young Lady Whose Bonnet by Edward Lear, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Ostrich on the reverse side.

Vintage Classics Illustrated Junior comic book published by Famous Authors, Ltd., which was a division of Gilberton Company, Inc. or Gilberton Publications. This is The Wishing Table comic book, No. 547 (Number 547), with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside February 1958. We think this is a first edition of this comic. The listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 545 The Glass Mountain (HRN #545). On half of the inside front cover there is an ad announcing, Coming Next Month, The Magic Pitcher which is shown as No. 548 and there is a description of that comic. Given that the publisher ended the back cover list a few comic books prior to this one, yet advertised the next comic in the series, we believe that supports this to be a first edition. This book is not a new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1950's and 1960's, so these are not recent reprints.

All have an old comic book smell, not bad, but there if you go sniffing. Many have a child's name or initial noticeably written on the front cover in ink or crayon (and a few have more writing on the cover). For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Wishing Table comic is judged to be an acceptable reading copy overall because it has a lot of wear. On the front cover there is prominent crayon writing in two spots showing a capital letter, another letter that is scribbled out and a number (see images). The connect the dots picture on half of the inside front cover has been done in pencil but there is also a light brown crayon coloring/shading/scribbling over almost all of the inside cover. The inside back cover coloring page is done similarly, with heavy pencil coloring/scribbling over much of the donkey (10-15% of the picture) then crayon coloring and overall background crayon shading over most of the rest of the picture (in total probably 75-80% of the picture is colored). When you open the inside front cover you can see that there is a 5/8 inch curved tear on the cover at the bottom of the lower staple which creates the look of a hole on the inside of the cover (but there isn't a hole in the cover, the cover is torn here with the edges seen on the cover as folded back to white paper) and a corresponding small 3/8 inch curved tear in the comic book pages from this bound edge that goes through pages 1 through 16 (with the tear being smaller/less noticeable over succeeding pages until it vanishes/ends). There is also a smaller tear with a folded back and chipped section on the cover along the bottom edge of the bound/stapled side (1/4 inch in length/width) and other edge creasing/bends/paper wear all along this side. On the right cover edge there is a 3/4 inch tear and other very small tears/chipping/wear. The front cover exhibits lots of handling/creasing/wrinkling wear with crease/cracking lines in the front colors, right corners fold line/tip chipping/curling, impressed lines, lots of wear along the bottom edge (not much along the top edge), etc. The back cover has a somewhat dirty look, with lots of wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, etc. The inside pages are browned with some having slight folding/creasing and pin holes/small holes in some pages (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in publishing). However, part of upper page 24 is missing, having been torn off in a curved fashion along the right side edge including the corner and extending down the page 3 1/2 inches. Fortunately this does not effect reading the story since all words and drawings are present (the tear is largely in the flat background color and margin areas). This copy includes two pages after the story illustrating and telling Aesop's Fables The Two Frogs, followed by one page illustrating and telling There Was an Old Person of Brigg by Edward Lear, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Aardvark on the reverse side. This collectible comic book measures about 7 x 10 3/16 inches in size. Given that this is an old or vintage comic book, we do not know what kind of ink was used in the printing (and particularly, whether any lead based inks were used). As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure.

For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Golden Fleece comic is a very good copy overall, but does have prominent somewhat light/partial writing in crayon of a child's name among the title with a separate capital letter initial written in blue ink pen near the boy figure (see image). The connect the dots picture on half of the inside front cover is clean/has not been done. However the coloring page on the inside back cover has been 40%+ colored in pencil in an erratic/scribbled fashion (not within all the lines). The comic does have the usual age reading use/wear including on the cover handling wear with a lot of creasing and wrinkling, crease/cracking lines in the front colors, wear/creasing to white/paper wear near and along the bound/stapled edge, corner fold line creasing in the upper right corner, wear/tip chipping to both right corners, wear/slight bending/chipping along the top, bottom and right side edges (this includes several small vertical tears along the top edge, etc. The back cover has a somewhat dirty look, with a small piece of tape stuck to the back, a small vertical tear with chip along top edge, lots of wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, etc. The inside pages are clean with some having some slight folding/creasing and some pin holes/small holes in some pages (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in publishing).

This is The House in the Woods comic book, No. 543 (Number 543), with 15 cents price on cover. This comic does not show a date on the bottom inside cover as many of the others do. It is not a first edition as the listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 556 The Elf Mound (HRN #556).

The connect the dots picture on the inside front cover has been lightly done in pencil (you don't see any indication of this on the front cover as with some of the other comics where this has been done in heavy pencil). The coloring page on the inside back cover is clean/has not been colored. The comic does have some of the usual age reading use/wear but less of it and not objectionable. You can see in the image that the cover as printed was slightly off with the color not going all the way to the top edge (there is a band of uncolored paper at the top of the front cover). There is handling wear to the cover with some light creasing/wrinkling, creases to white along the bound/stapled edge with other paper wear to this edge, corner fold line creasing in the lower right corner, wear/tip bending/chipping to the both right corners, wear/slight bending along the top and bottom edges, etc. The back cover has a largely clean look, with some evidence of handling particularly with bending/creasing along the top edge, but the back cover is very nice overall. The inside pages are clean with some having folding in the lower right corner and some pin holes/small holes in some pages (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in printing). This copy includes two pages after the story illustrating and telling Aesop's Fables The Treasure in the Vineyard, followed by one page illustrating and telling the nursery rhyme The Broom, The Shovel, The Poker and the Tongs, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Skunk on the reverse side.

This is not a first edition as the listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 559 The Japanese Lantern (HRN #559). This book is not the new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). Please note that we have two copies of this The Three Fairies comic and are listing each separately as A and B . From the differences in the HRN numbers, copy A is older than copy B (HRN 538 vs. HRN 559). All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1950's and 1960's, so these are not recent reprints.

For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Three Fairies comic is a good copy overall (we would judge copy A to be in better condition), but does have writing on the cover in two separate spots in blue pen ink. Near the bottom front cover appears a child's full name and below the comic title in the center this name was written prominently again but then lined out with several horizontal lines (see image). The connect the dots picture on the inside front cover has been completed in pen with some lighter pen line coloring. The coloring page on the inside back cover has been partially colored in crayon on the lady's clothing and arms with additional coloring on the water (probably about 15-20% of the picture has been colored at most). The comic does have usual age reading use/wear including on the front cover a vertical slightly slanted fold line going down the full cover near the right side, the impressions from the connect the dots picture done on the reverse side, general wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, scuffing/paper wear to white/wrinkling/chipping along the top edge, line cracking wear/other paper wear along the left bound/stapled edge, several diagonal corner creases in the upper right corner, corner tip wear/chipping on both right corners, scuffing wear and crease/cracking lines in the front colors, etc. The back cover is overall slightly dirty with lines and impressed raised lines, and similar creasing, wrinkling, handling wear, etc. The inside pages are clean but browned, with the last comic page having two vertical tears along the bottom edge (1/2 inch and 1 inch in length). This copy includes two pages after the story illustrating and telling Aesop's Fables The Ant and the Dove, followed by a page illustrating and telling the Rub-A-Dub-Dub nursery rhyme, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Flamingo on the reverse side.

But on half of the inside front cover there is an ad announcing, Coming Next Month, Silly Hans with a description of that comic. So we believe that the publisher added comic No. 538 Silly Hans to the list on the back cover even though this was a first edition of The Three Fairies, comic No. 537. This book is not the new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). Please note that we have two copies of this The Three Fairies comic and are listing each separately as A and B .

Many have a child's name or initial noticeably written on the front cover in ink or crayon (and a few have more writing on the cover). For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Three Fairies comic is a very good/good copy overall, but does have a child's first name written prominently on the cover in crayon with the first letter initial also written nearby in blue ink pen (see image). The connect the dots picture on half of the inside front cover has been completed in pencil (and you can see the strong reverse imprint from the first letter initial written hard on the reverse/front cover side). The coloring page on the inside back cover has been partially colored in crayon on the lady's clothing with a bit on her face and the water (probably about 10-15% of the picture has been colored at most). The comic does have usual age reading use/wear including on the front cover the impressions from the connect the dots picture done on the reverse side, impressions from other writing/dots/lines (a piece of paper must have been placed on top of this comic and a good bit of writing was done on that paper, you only see this when you look at an angle in bright light but it is there), general wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, bending/chipping wear along the top, bottom and right side edges, wear/paper wear along the left bound/stapled edge, several diagonal corner creases in the upper right corner, corner tip wear/chipping on both right corners, etc. The back cover is overall slightly dirty with several round stain spots, and similar creasing, wrinkling, handling wear, etc. You can see pink on the back cover which appears to be crayon bleed from the coloring done on the inside back cover. The inside pages are clean but browned, with many having pin holes and small holes in the paper (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in printing). This copy includes two pages after the story illustrating and telling Aesop's Fables The Ant and the Dove, followed by a page illustrating and telling the Rub-A-Dub-Dub nursery rhyme, with an illustrated page The Animal World, The Flamingo on the reverse side.

Given that this is an old or vintage comic book, we do not know what kind of ink was used in the printing (and particularly, whether any lead based inks were used). As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure.

Vintage Classics Illustrated Junior comic book published by Famous Authors, Ltd., which was a division of Gilberton Company, Inc. or Gilberton Publications. This is The Chimney Sweep comic book, No. 536 (Number 536), with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside March 1957. On the cover under the title it lists the author of the story, Hans Christian Andersen. This is not a first edition as the listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 563 The Wishing Well (HRN #563). This book is not the new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1950's and 1960's, so these are not recent reprints. The Classics Illustrated Junior comic books are generally in good/very good or acceptable reading condition but are definitely not mint, showing varying levels of age and wear which will be detailed. All were read and handled by children and thus show expected handling wear. All have interior pages which are browned at the edges, looking overall with an aged paper look, that is, the interior pages are not white as they would have been originally. All have an old comic book smell, not bad, but there if you go sniffing. Many have a child's name or initial noticeably written on the front cover in ink or crayon (and a few have more writing on the cover). For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Chimney Sweep comic is in very good condition overall, but does have a child's first name written prominently on the cover in crayon with the first letter initial also written nearby in blue ink pen (see image). The connect the dots picture on the inside front cover and the coloring page on the inside back cover are clean, that is they have not been done or colored at all. The comic does have usual age reading use/wear including on the front cover a large vertical crease line in the middle with a second vertical/slightly slanted crease line near the left bound/stapled edge, a diagonal crease in the Classics Illustrated box, onpage wrinkling/creasing/handling wear, bending and wrinkling along the top and bottom edges, large and small diagonal fold lines near the bottom right corner, corner tip chipping in the upper and lower right corners, paper wear along the left bound/stapled edge, crease/cracking lines in the front colors, etc. The back cover appears a lot cleaner looking than many of the other comics, but still has similar expected use/handling wear (wrinkling, creasing, etc.). The inside pages are generally clean but browned (a few pages seem a bit dirty perhaps from ink transfer). This copy includes two pages illustrating and telling Aesop's Fables The Fisherman and the Little Fish, followed by a page illustrating and telling the nursery rhyme Pat-A-Cake, with The Animal World, The Beaver on the reverse side. This collectible comic book measures about 7 x 10 3/16 inches in size. Given that this is an old or vintage comic book, we do not know what kind of ink was used in the printing (and particularly, whether any lead based inks were used). As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure.

Vintage Classics Illustrated Junior comic book published by Famous Authors, Ltd., which was a division of Gilberton Company, Inc. or Gilberton Publications. This is The Dancing Princesses comic book, No. 532 (Number 532), with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside November 1956. We think this is a first edition of this comic. The listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with the next comic in this series, No. 533 The Magic Fountain (HRN #533). But on half of the inside front cover there is an ad announcing, Coming Next Month, The Magic Fountain with a description of that comic. So we believe that the publisher added comic No. 533 The Magic Fountain to the list on the back cover even though this was a first edition of The Dancing Princesses, comic No. 532. This book is not the new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). Please note that we have two copies of this The Dancing Princesses comic and are listing each separately as A and B . All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1950's and 1960's, so these are not recent reprints.

For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. This The Dancing Princesses comic is an acceptable reading copy overall, but does have a child's first name written prominently on the cover in crayon with the first letter initial also written nearby in blue ink pen (see image). The connect the dots picture on the inside front cover has been completed in pencil. The coloring page on the inside back cover has been colored a bit on the lady's skirt in blue ink pen (probably about 10% of the picture has been colored at most). The comic does have lots of usual age reading use/wear. We particularly note that the front cover has a somewhat dirty appearance with dirt/spotting particularly along the pink background at the right side edge and other dirt/slightly dark lines on the princess' skirt and elsewhere on the cover. The cover also has creasing/handling/wrinkling lines, some wear along the bound/stapled edge, some wear/tip curling/tip folding/chipping on the two right corners, wear/slight chipping/slight bending along the upper, lower and right side edges, crease/cracking lines in the front colors, etc. The back cover seems generally dirty, with similar creasing, wrinkling, lots of handling wear, etc. While the inside pages are mostly clean but browned, there is a little spotting/staining in the margin area of the first comic page with a small right side edge paper tear on this and another page, with some pages having pin holes in the paper (we believe this is from how the paper was made/handled in printing). This copy includes a page after the story illustrating and telling the Little Jack Horner rhyme, with an illustrated page telling The Animal World, The Porcupine on the reverse side. This collectible comic book measures about 7 x 10 1/4 inches in size.

This book is not the new reprint (there is no UPC block on this book). Please note that we have two copies of this The Penny Prince comic and are listing each separately as A and B .

For many the interior connect the dots illustration has been done or the interior coloring page has been colored. The Penny Prince comic is in good condition overall, but does have a child's first and last name written prominently in blue pen ink on the front cover. This copy of The Penny Prince does not have a connect the dots or coloring page as printed (this also supports copy B being older than copy A ). The comic does have usual age reading use/wear on the cover via a large diagonal crease near the top of the cover with the line going through The in the title, onpage creasing/handling/wrinkling wear, a small vertical tear along the top edge with other use wear/chipping on this edge and along the bottom and right side edges, some wear along the left side bound/stapled edge (but not bad), corner tip bending/chipping/wear on both right corners, etc. The back cover looks slightly dirty with two small tears along the top edge, other general folding/bending wear/chipping along all three non-bound edges, and general wrinkling, creasing, etc. The inside pages are browned but clean.

On the front cover there is a piece missing in the lower left corner with other smaller chipping/pieces missing along the vertical bound/stapled edge above it. In the lower right corner you can see in the image that the corner has been chipped off, with corner chipping also in this same place on the interior pages (smaller, but there). The top edge of the front cover has been bent back slightly, with chipping and small pieces missing and top right corner tip chipping. The front cover has other tearing at the top left corner, horizontal creasing, general creasing, wrinkling, some slight scuffing, indentation marks, browning and dirt, etc. On the back cover there is chipping/pieces missing along the bottom edge and bound right corner, wrinkling/bending, tears/chipping in the staple areas (these are most noticeable when you open the book looking at the inside back cover), dirt/browning, and other general use/handling wear.

Vintage Classics Illustrated comic book by Gilberton Company, Inc. (Gilberton Publications). This is The White Company comic book, No. 102 (Number 102) in the series with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside December 1952. It is not a first edition as the listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 165 The Queen's Necklace (HRN #165). All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1960's, so these are not recent reprints. The Classics Illustrated comic books are in good/very good or better condition but are definitely not mint, showing varying levels of age and wear which will be detailed. All were read and handled by children and thus show expected handling wear. All have interior pages which are browned at the edges, looking overall with an aged paper look, that is, the interior pages are not white as they would have been originally. All have an old comic book smell, not bad, but there if you go sniffing. The White Company comic states the author's name on the cover as A. Conan Doyle. This is a nice copy overall. It does have usual age reading use/wear although the front cover is nicer than many (but the back cover has a good bit of wear). There still is some front cover wrinkling/bending wear, some cover folding and fold lines at the lower right corner, corner tip chipping upper and lower right corners, along the top and bottom front cover edges there is some chipping/bending with a small tear to paper scuffing along the bottom edge, bend creasing and wear along the stapled bound edge front cover, and other expected handling wear, indentations, creases, etc. The back cover shows a lot of paper wear/paper scuffing/tearing along the top edge as well as in many other spots. To us it looks as if the back cover once got stuck to something else and then was pulled off creating a lot of top surface paper wear (but there is no indication of water damage). The back cover also has other spotting, tiny edge tears, a horizontal fold across the cover near the bottom, general wear, etc. The inside pages are clean with some bending/curling at the top towards the end of the book and on the back cover. This copy includes a page about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a two page story titled How Much Land Does a Man Need? and one page Great Lives about Nathan Hale.

As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure. Please note that we have many other comic books listed separately for sale. If you wish to purchase more than one comic book, please e-mail us before placing the order since the shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you).

Vintage Classics Illustrated comic book by Gilberton Company, Inc. (Gilberton Publications). This is The Moonstone comic book, No. 30 (Number 30) in the series with 15 cents price on cover, dated on the inside September 1965. It is not a first edition as the listing on the back cover of other comic books available in the series ends with No. 167 Faust (HRN #167). All the Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated Junior comic books we are listing came out of the same home where they were purchased as new items for their children in the 1960's, so these are not recent reprints. The Classics Illustrated comic books are in good/very good or better condition but are definitely not mint, showing varying levels of age and wear which will be detailed. All were read and handled by children and thus show expected handling wear. All have interior pages which are browned at the edges, looking overall with an aged paper look, that is, the interior pages are not white as they would have been originally. All have an old comic book smell, not bad, but there if you go sniffing. The Moonstone comic states the author's name on the cover as William Wilkie Collins. This is a very nice copy overall. It does have usual age reading use/wear with some cover wrinkling/bending wear, some scuffing and dirt on the cover, some cover folding and fold lines at the lower right corner, corner tip chipping upper and lower right corners, along the top and bottom front cover edges there are a few tiny tears/bends/chipping/wrinkling, bend creasing and wear along the stapled bound edge front cover, and other expected handling wear, indentations, creases, etc. The back cover also shows general/similar wear, a 5/8 inch tear near the lower left corner, multiple scuffed circle marks, wear along the top edge and top right corner, and the former owner has circled the numbers of five other comic books in pen or pencil. The inside pages are clean. This copy includes the page detailing William Wilkie Collins and the page with a Dog Heroes story. This collectible comic book measures about 6 7/8 x 10 1/4 inches in size. Given that this is an old or vintage comic book, we do not know what kind of ink was used in the printing (and particularly, whether any lead based inks were used). As such, we will only sell this comic to adult collectors, it should be handled with care, and it should not be given to/handled by children due to concerns with lead exposure. Please note that we have many other comic books listed separately for sale. If you wish to purchase more than one comic book, please e-mail us before placing the order since the shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you).
