Description
Flash Comics #88 Mile High pedigree (DC, 1947) CGC NM+ 9.6 White pages. This one destroys the competition as the only copy certified above 9.0 to date. This very copy was pictured in Comic Book Marketplace #31, with noted Mile High collector Pat Kochanek singling it out as one of the great unheralded Golden Age covers (Joe Kubert is the credited cover artist). While this issue hasn't been designated "scarce," we had never seen a high-grade copy before, and just six copies appear on CGC's census to date. The page quality is exceptional, and the overall appeal lets us dub this the best existing copy without fear of contradiction. Overstreet 2008 NM- 9.2 value = $1,800. CGC census 4/08: 1 in 9.6, none higher.CGC Grader Notes:
