<B>Keen Detective Funnies #8 (Centaur, 1938) CGC FN+ 6.5 Cream to off-white pages.</B></I> The index may say #8, but this was actually the first issue of the title, which had supposedly morphed from <B>Detective Picture Stories</B></I>. Like virtually all of the pre-1940 Centaurs, this one's tough to find, and boasts a Gerber "7" or "scarce" in <B>The Photo-Journal Guide to Comic Books</B></I>'<B> </B></I>scarcity index. That rating may be conservative, because this is the one and only copy to be certified by CGC to date, and we've never offered a copy in any grade before. The Clock is the headline story. Overstreet 2007 FN 6.0 value = $717; VF 8.0 value = $1,494. CGC census 1/08: 1 in 6.5, 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>)
