Description
Flash Comics #6 Mile High pedigree (DC, 1940) CGC NM+ 9.6 White pages. As the only copy graded above FN 6.0 by CGC to date, this is obviously the best we've seen, and we're taking a good look at the red and yellow surfaces with not a hint of dirt, dust shadows, color breaks or any other defect you could name.This is just the second Flash cover! Amazingly enough, for the covers of issues #2-5 our hero took a backseat to Hawkman, Cliff Cornwall, the Whip, and the King, though from this issue forward the Flash and Hawkman would alternate. E. E. Hibbard is the cover artist.
This immaculate copy evokes memories of the 9.6 Mile High copy of issue #1, which remains Heritage's highest-selling single comic at $273,125. Yet this one has the added bonus of the "white pages" certification. Note that the text in the middle of the CGC label is not the notation of a defect, but simply a typographical error reading "and art,," (sic). Overstreet 2008 NM- 9.2 value = $8,700. CGC census 7/08: 1 in 9.6, none higher.
