Estimated Market Value
Raw value: $5 - $15. Graded value is generally not cost-effective for this grade and issue.
Recent Sales

Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The grading and slab fees would exceed the total market value of the comic in this condition.

Features classic Bronze Age horror anthology storytelling with cover art by Joe Staton, typical of Charlton Comics' horror line in the early 1970s.
Authentication Notes
Appears to be an authentic vintage copy consistent with early 1970s Charlton publication standards, including newsprint paper quality and traditional coloring methods.
