American Comics Update: The Bute Collection: America’s Greatest Comics #7 1943
*Miscellaneous 1940-1959: From the Bute Collection this week, a Fawcett 100 pager from 1943, featuring Captain Marvel, Commando Yank, Mr Scarlet & Pinky, Minute Man, Balbo the Boy Magician, Bulletman & Bulletgirl, some comedy shorts and, as you would expect from a war-time issue, quite a few Nazis. Great cover with Captain Marvel showing a youngster ‘the world of your tomorrow.’ Nice condition cover with bright colours; a few white spots and wear marks and one or two minor colour-breaking creases with a lower spine split of about 2.5 cm; the rest of the squarebound spine is solid. Staple and original glue bind the comic very well. Pages are an excellent and supple off-white quality. Four pencilled letters above Captain Marvel’s head on cover. A solid and appealing copy.
