Description
Amazing Adventure Funnies #1 (Centaur, 1940) CGC VF+ 8.5 Cream to off-white pages. Centaurs are pretty hard to find in any condition, so a VF+ 8.5 copy is quite a pleasant surprise. This two-issue series was essentially "Centaur's Greatest Hits," with encore presentations of highlights from earlier books drawn by the likes of Bill Everett (Skyrocket Steele) and Paul Gustavson (the Fantom of the Fair). We're intrigued by the way Overstreet once explained use of reprints rather than new stories: "Conjecture is that Timely's sudden success pre-empted all of the Everett shop's time." The issue's cover is by William Rowland. Overstreet 2006 VF 8.0 value = $1,156; VF/NM 9.0 value = $1,828. CGC census 5/06: 1 in 8.5, 1 higher.View the certification for CGC Certification ID 0709677008, including grader's notes if available and a link to the latest full census report for the issue.*
