Detective Comics #43 -15 Cent Variant  D  Copy
<B>Detective Comics #43 -15 Cent Variant - Davis Crippen ("D" Copy) pedigree (DC, 1940) CGC FN- 5.5 Cream to off-white pages.</B></I> What a great issue! From the Bob Kane/Jerry Robinson cover to the Bill Finger/Jerry Siegel scripts, to the interior artwork by Kane/Robinson, Howard Sherman, and Fred Guardineer, this is quintessential Golden Age DC. This copy is a rare 15 cent variant! A 15-cent version of <B>Batman</B></I> #2, published the same year, is known to exist as well, and speculation has it that these were printed in the U.S. as part of the regular print run, yet intended for the Canadian market. The book displays plenty of nice cover colors that would normally be associated with a higher grade. Overstreet 2007 FN 6.0 value = $813. CGC census 6/07 (for the 15-cent variant): 1 in 5.5, 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>)
