Golden & Silver Age Comic & Collectibles Auction
Lot 494:
Description
A group of four vintage Gold Key comic books featuring the character ‘The Phantom’ by Lee Falk. Each comic displays ‘ONLY 12c’ or ‘STILL ONLY 12c’ on the cover, indicating their publication era. The cover art depicts various action scenes, typical of adventure comics, including jungle settings, snowscapes, and combat, with taglines such as “The Phantom fights a jungle god of witchcraft!” and “Ruthless ‘Super Apes’ defy The Phantom for control of the jungle!”. The back covers feature period advertisements, one for a “Greeting Card Company” offering “$100.00 IS YOURS” and another for a “100pc. TOY SOLDIER SET!”.
Condition report:
The comics appear to be in fair to good vintage condition, exhibiting minor wear, creasing, and corner blunting consistent with age and handling, but with generally vibrant cover colors.
