*DC: A chance to grab some bargains from the Midas Collection with a couple of low grade issues of Superman from 1947. Both have three Superman stories with art by the stylish John Sikela, and stories by Jerry Siegel and Al Schwartz. #45 features a Jack Burnley cover, whereas #46 is cover illustrated by Wayne Boring; both covers feature the amusing humour of the time. #45 has the ‘Lois Lane, Superwoman’ story; the lead in #46 features Mr Mxyztplk.

#45 PR/FA £50 Cover detached from centre. Spine heavily worn with holes, but just about holding together. Edge wear and chipping. Staples are okay but rusty due to water damage which ripples and stains a little throughout the comic. But perfectly readable and complete, and possibly a little better than it sounds. SOLD
#46 FA £90 Cover appears to have been glued above top staple. There is a long and ragged 14 cm strip out of the back cover at the spine, but the front cover image is unaffected. Chip out top spine and central top cover above logo. Hard crease of about 7.5 cm across bottom right of cover. Some chipping at right edge and general edge wear. Staples and page quality are okay.
