Description

Mad #48 Gaines File pedigree (EC, 1959) CGC NM/MT 9.8 Off-white to white pages. How could a 40-year-old magazine with a white cover possibly have survived in NM/MT 9.8 condition? The secret is that this absolutely pristine specimen never touched a newsstand, going straight from the printers, to Bill Gaines' closet where it spent decades, to a CGC slab, to (if you're lucky) you. The issue's cover is by Kelly Freas; the interior artists include Wally Wood, Joe Orlando, Mort Drucker, Dave Berg, and Don Martin. Overstreet 2005 NM- 9.2 value = $165. CGC census 12/05: 3 in 9.8, none higher.
