Golden & Silver Age Comic & Collectibles Auction
Lot 149:
Description
This lot presents a group of seven vintage American comic books, predominantly featuring DC Comics’ “Superman,” “Batman,” “World’s Finest Comics,” and “The Flash” titles. The collection notably includes *The Flash #197* (1959 series). Several comics are identified as “80 Page Giant” editions, with visible cover prices of 15¢ and 25¢. The back covers primarily display advertisements for Aurora plastic model kits, including “The Batmobile,” “The Rat Patrol,” “The Thunderbike,” and “The Monster Movie Makers.” The style, content, and pricing suggest a period from the late 1960s to early 1970s, characteristic of the Silver Age of comic books. All items are printed on paper, with English text throughout. A small white paper slip with “149” handwritten in blue ink is also present among the items.
Condition report:
The comics are in good to very good, circulated condition, exhibiting typical age-related wear such as minor creasing, edge wear, and slight discoloration consistent with vintage paper collectibles.
