CONDITION:
Extremely low-grade structural condition.
Book is completely detached and is essentially loose original pages and cover housed together in a bag and board. There is no functional binding.
Cover has extensive wear including large pieces missing, heavy edge and corner loss, tears, creasing, staining/discoloration and substantial paper deterioration. Interior pages are loose and should be expected to exhibit significant age and handling wear.
This is being offered as an affordable example of a scarce 1950s Atlas pre-Code horror comic and should be considered a reader, filler, restoration candidate or collection of original pages rather than a conventionally bound comic.
Please examine photos carefully for exact contents, completeness and condition. Sold exactly as pictured.
