Description

Detective Comics #30 Davis Crippen ("D" Copy) pedigree (DC, 1939) CGC VG 4.0 Cream to off-white pages. Here's the first unrestored copy we've ever offered of this early Batman appearance, and only a few blue-label copies have ever earned a higher grade than this one. Batman's fourth outing had the start of some continuity in the series, with the previous issue's villain, Dr. Death, returning from his apparent demise. Overstreet mentions the "classic Batman splash panel" - it's a grim Batman looming over the top third of the first page. Bob Kane collaborated with Sheldon Moldoff on the Batman art. Meanwhile, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster teamed up for a Slam Bradley adventure, and Fred Guardineer drew both a Speed Saunders story and the issue's dramatic cover. Overstreet 2006 VG 4.0 value = $1,454. CGC census 6/06: 1 in 4.0, 4 higher. From the Crippen Collection.
