This CGC 9.4 copy was previously graded as a CGC 8.5 due to the existence of a "very minor amount of glue on cover." A prior owner obviously had the glue removed, an act which is not considered to be restoration, and the book was then upgraded by CGC. The book was also pressed.

No doubt it is not surprising that this book is the highest graded copy with the next coming in at CGC 9.0. Chuck Cuidera art on the outside and Jack Cole work on the inside. Quality books from the mid-fifties are increasingly difficult to locate in this grade.

Overstreet 2009 NM- 9.2 value = $325.
