Comic Description
A digest-sized collection featuring classic humorous stories, gags, and puzzles starring Archie Andrews, Jughead Jones, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, and Li'l Jinx.
Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Good (CGC 4.0)
Condition Details
Moderate to heavy spine wear, rolling, corner rounding and blunting, surface creasing and scuffing on the yellow background, minor edge tears, yellowing and tanning typical of digest-sized newsprint paper.
Estimated Market Value
Raw value estimated between $5.00 to $15.00. Graded value is not economically viable for this condition and issue type.
Recent Sales
Similar vintage Archie digests in lower-to-mid grades generally sell in the $5.00 to $10.00 range online and at local comic shops.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading (CGC/CBCS) as the grading and shipping costs would far exceed the market value of the comic.
Notable Features
Features 160 pages of stories and puzzles, distributed by Fawcett, priced at 50 cents with the Comics Code Authority seal.
Authentication Notes
Appears authentic with standard newsprint paper stock, typical digest binding, and appropriate vintage printing registration and color tones for an Archie publication of this era.
