AIRBOY V8 #10, 1951, Hillman Periodicals. Horse-in-quicksand cover.
Note: I am selling many CLASSIC GOLDEN-AGE comics this week, most starting at 99 CENTS. Auctions end Sunday night, November 8. Please see my other listings -- you might find something else you like.
ABOUT THIS COMIC: Airboy was a goggled adventure hero who had a really cool purple bat-like plane. The comics generally have an Airboy story and then a bunch of other action-adventure stories (pirates, racers, cowboys, and other general-appeal subjects.). These are 52 pagers, so readers really got their money's worth. SEE PHOTOS BELOW.
CONDITION/GRADE: I judge this comic to be in VG condition based on Overstreet guidelines. Some aspects of grading can be subjective, so please make your own determination by reading the following and examining the photos below.
POSITIVES: ORIGINAL AND COMPLETE. Solid copy with good cover color, flat cover, solid spine. NEGATIVES: Somebody wrote "Leo Leo" on the cover. Other general wear associated with this grade.
I have described the comic to the best of my ability. I always try to page completely through each comic and list all relevant flaws. I am happy to provide more details, so please feel free to ask questions if you have additional concerns about condition.
COMIC VALUE: A recent Overstreet guidebook values this comic at $32 in VG and $48 in FN condition.
(PLEASE CONSIDER BIDDING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS, AS I WILL COMBINE CHARGES TO GIVE BUYERS THE BEST POSSIBLE DEAL ON SHIPPING.)
• Shipping policy: I try to charge a fair rate based on materials and average cost for an item's size/weight. I WILL GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS. Shipping costs/methods are negotiable based on your preferences. Please allow a few days lead time, since I can only get to the post office once or twice a week. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS are welcome, but keep in mind that like many others on eBay, I will not declare a false item value on a form.
• Packaging policy: Items will be packaged carefully. Comics or magazines are usually put in plastic with a backing, then sandwiched between thick cardboard so the spine will not be bent in transit. I have never had any complaints about packaging. Extra padding and protection is used for rare/expensive items.
• Condition policy: As a frequent eBay buyer, nothing is more irksome than getting a "surprise" -- an item in condition notably worse than described. I will never knowingly misrepresent an item's condition. My pet peeves for comics/magazines are split spines and detached centerfolds, so if an item has these flaws it will be described in the listing. If an item has major cut-outs, tears or other flaws, it will be prominently mentioned, not buried in the description. I aim to be a seller who can be trusted.
• Returns policy: I don't have a strict policy, but I will allow returns for valid reasons. However, like most sellers I do not wish to spend extra time and fees having to take back items for frivolous reasons, so I won't agree to returns without justification. Please be sure to read the description carefully and do your part to make the transaction go smoothly.
