Description
Bulletman #1 (Fawcett, 1941) CGC NM- 9.2 Off-white to white pages. This is the highest-graded copy by two grades, the next-highest being a VF+ 8.5 with cream to off-white pages! And note that the Mile High (8.0), Pennsylvania (6.5), and Crowley (5.5) copies were all graded significantly lower. And none of the copies we've seen pictured in books were any great shakes either, so save this catalog! Or better still, make sure you win this lot!Also, it's not an easy book to find in any grade -- just 11 copies have been certified by CGC as of this writing, despite the high values in all grades. In All in Color For a Dime, Roy Thomas called this book "a rarely seen, mouthwatering collector's item"... and that was written circa 1970.
The silver metallic cover is an eye-grabber here, and kids were familiar with Bulletman and Bulletgirl from their previous outings in Nickel Comics and Master Comics. Overstreet credits Mac Raboy with the cover art. Overstreet 2009 NM- 9.2 value = $6,400. CGC census 4/09: 1 in 9.2, none higher. From the Chicorel Collection.
