Description
The Flash #105 (DC, 1959) CGC VF- 7.5 Off-white pages. Currently ranked #10 (in a tie with two other issues) on Overstreet's Top Silver Age Books, this is the first issue of the Silver Age Flash, after four tryout issues in Showcase #4, 8, 13, and 14. Numbering continues from the last Golden Age issue of Flash Comics in 1949. Silver Age DC keys issued before 1960 can be tough to find in high grades, and this is a gem of a copy, looking much nicer on first review than the CGC-assigned grade. The cover colors and the interior's page quality are impressive, and even at VF- 7.5, there are but a handful of nicer copies certified to date. Carmine Infantino picks up where he left off in 1949, as the primary artist, handling both the cover and interior art duties. The Flash's origin is retold, and the issue also has the origin and first appearance of the Mirror Master. Overstreet 2007 VF 8.0 value = $4,000. CGC census 10/07: 6 in 7.5, 7 higher.CGC Grader Notes:
