Condition Details

Small stickers are present on the poly-bag or cover surface which may affect presentation if directly on book.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $15 - $25; Graded (CGC 4.0): $50 - $70
Recent Sales
Recent ungraded mid-grade copies have consistently sold in the $20 range. Higher grade copies (8.0+) command significant premiums over $200.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of CGC/CBCS grading would likely exceed the market value of the book in this condition. It is a great reader/filler copy for a collection in its current state.

First appearance of Demo (organization). Wally Wood cover art and stories. 25-cent Giant size as was standard for Tower Comics.
Authentication Notes
The book displays correct Silver Age paper aging (yellowing edges) and Tower Comics' distinct 25-cent price marking and logo style. No indicators of reproduction are present.
