Blue Ribbon Comics #16 (MLJ , 1941) CGC FN/VF
<B>Blue Ribbon Comics #16 (MLJ, 1941) CGC FN/VF 7.0 Off-white to white pages.</B></I> One of the key issues of this title, #16 comes along very seldom -- the only other copy on CGC's census is a 4.5 that we auctioned some years ago. This is Captain Flag's first appearance, and on the back cover there's a full-page pinup of the Shield! This is an all-American affair all right, and Captain Flag's origin (playboy ne'er-do-well + tragic event + nursed to health by bald eagle) is told in this debut issue as well. Sam Cooper is the cover artist, and he drew in Mr. Justice (the blue guy in the background), the Fox, the Inferno, and other MLJ heroes here. Overstreet 2007 FN 6.0 value = $498; VF 8.0 value = $1,038. CGC census 10/07: 1 in 7.0, none higher.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Comics - Slabbed (certified) (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
