29dukedog Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 New arrival, and what turns out to be an accurate grade from CGC - the front cover has that pedigree "pop", but there is some soiling/scuffing along the spine on the back cover, which brings the technical grade down. OW-W pages, too. Nice book, and congrats on the accurate grade. Scarce commodity these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifties Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Here is one you never see. Mad # 1 Canadian Edition Only FIVE (5) copies extant on the CGC Census of the Canadian edition versus its American counterpart at 305 copies. Wow, what a rarity! I got a coverless copy of Mad 1 back in 1956, but it wasn't until just recently to get a copy of the cover for it. I have a couple of Canadian Weird Science issues, and they have an upper left circular logo stating A Superior Publication, with the Canadian Maple Leaf in the center. Interesting to see the EC logo there, as well as on the right side, on yours instead. [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
