Collector Notes

Unlike standard monthly comics, this issue was published as a pocket-sized (4⅞" x 6⅝") Blue Ribbon Digest. Because these books were printed on low-grade, highly acidic pulp paper and glued into a tight square-bound pocketbook spine, they are highly fragile. High-grade copies (CGC 9.0 or better) are incredibly scarce because the spines split easily when opened flat.
