** Auction will not be stopped early, and with the low reserve, this incredible book will sell! **
This LOW RESERVE 7 day auction is for one of the SCARCEST and most HIGH DEMAND Batman comics of them all …….Detective Comics #29! This elusive 1939 Bat KEY has the following claims to fame:
1. 3rd Batman appearance
2. 2nd Batman cover
3. 1st Dr. Death appearance
4. one of the most coveted "Classic Bat Covers"!
5. RARE! — only 11 Unrestored copies have been CGC graded to date!
6. 4th highest graded unrestored copy!
7. ranked as the #17 Golden Age comic in the OPG!
CGC graded 5.0 VG/F Unrestored with Cream / Off-White pages! This MID-GRADE Unrestored copy may be the nicest one available for many years to come! When rarely surfacing at all, Tec 29 is typically found restored or in very low grade, often with brittle pages and major spine splits. This outstanding copy has rich, bright cover inks and a solid spine….some minor paper loss on the back cover near the top of this spine keep this book from grading higher. The front cover has a FINE++++ appearance, and the interioir pages are supple and problem free, with no writing, marks, or tears. The pics taken have not been enhanced or made brighter…they show the true vibrant coloring of this great classic comic book. As with most pre-Robin Tecs, this is a "multiples of Guide" key issue….don't get sniped! This comic will be a key showpiece in ANY Golden Age collection !!
