Description

New Fun Comics #3 (DC, 1935) Condition: Apparent VG/FN. This oversized Platinum Age rarity was printed in a large 10.25" x 15" format, making mid-to high-grade copies almost impossible to find. The Photo-Journal Guide to Comic Books lists it as an "8" ("rare") on its Scarcity Index, and this is one of only five copies that we've offered to date, none of which have graded higher than VG+ 4.5. This was the third comic book published by DC, and it is the medium's first science fiction-themed cover featuring Don Drake on the Planet Soro. Overstreet notes, "... early (maybe 1st) DC letter column." Restoration includes color touch and pieces added to the spine. Overstreet 2024 GD 2.0 value = $2,930; VG 4.0 value = $5,860.
