Description: One of the highest graded issues of this Golden Age Classic! CGC census as of 9/24: 3 in 6.5, only 13 higher The colors on this Timely superhero classic are so brilliant that it's hard to believe the comic is almost 80 years old! The World War II cover by Alex Schomburg features the Human Torch (Jim Hammond) and Toro protecting General MacArthur's headquarters with the American flag waving, from an onslaught of Japanese troops and tanks, with the Sub-Mariner backup story also teased. I have provided upclose scans as well as photos. Please look at them carefully as this will be the exact book that ships in this condition. The case itself, to the touch, is smooth all around each side and corners, and is securely sealed although it may exhibit some of the usual internal manufacturing artifacts that can be present during the CGC encapsulation process. No returns on CGC items. Story art by Al Gabriele. Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding or buying. Thanks for looking!
