<B>Mad #4 Gaines File pedigree 4/12 (EC, 1953) CGC NM/MT 9.8 Off-white to white pages.</B></I> This is a killer high-grade copy featuring a Harvey Kurtzman cover that has everything an assassin enthusiast would love and that any young reader's mother would love to hate. A decidedly blessed beauty struts through a gauntlet of booby traps designed to do her harm. This book also contains a marijuana mention in the story <I>Fob was a Slob</B></I>. This beautiful copy, at a scintillating NM/MT 9.8, ranks "only" second-best with CGC, bested by an improbable MT 9.9, though we can't imagine a nicer book than our offering. Overstreet 2006 NM- 9.2 value = $1,175. CGC census 10/06: 5 in 9.8, 1 higher.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Slabbed Comic (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
