Description

Sub-Mariner Comics #23 (Timely, 1947) CGC FN/VF 7.0 Cream to off-white pages. Syd Shores created the cover long before Ray Charles talked about "the woman with the red dress on," but maybe Ray's classic "What'd I say?" was inspired by a comic book he read as a teenager..."Good Girl" art was the thing in the late forties, and Shores unabashedly used the effect to spice up the title's cover. Namora makes her second comic appearance here. This copy is close to the highest grade CGC has allowed to date for this issue, a Very Fine. But for light corner creases at the upper front and lower back, plus an impact dent at the upper back spine, this copy would likely have surpassed even Very Fine. Overstreet 2002 FN 6.0 value = $342; VF 8.0 value = $713.
