Title: ACROSS THE SEAS IN A WAR TORN WORLD [No Number] * Extremely Rare EC
Place Published:
Publisher:EC [Indicia: Educational Comics, Inc.]
Date Published: 1948
Description:
VG+ (4.5). Tan pages. Sun shadow to spine, dampsoiling to bottom corner of covers and pages, a few soil spots to covers, two tears to back cover (1" and 3"). No script or art credits. Indicia: "Produced for the National Lutheran Council by Educational Comics, Inc., publishers of Picture Stories from the Bible." Not listed in Overstreet. CGC Census: Two graded copies. GPAnalysis: No sales data. Rare.
One of the ultimate EC obscurities. Not listed in Overstreet or the Gerber Photo-Journal Guide. Heritage has never offered a copy, and GPAnalysis.com has no reported sales. When shown this rare discovery, EC historian Roger Hill said, "Wow, never heard of this!," and EC ace Thommy Burns said, "This is completely amazing! I have heard of this and even written about it, but this is the first time I've ever known anyone... that had a copy." Alas, sometimes a book can be so scarce that it flops on the marketplace, because collectors simply aren't aware that it exists. Such was the case with this mag, which failed to find a buyer in PBA's previous comic sale. Here it is again, with the reserve slashed to an insanely low $350. Bid while you can — this may be your last chance!
A deluxe limited edition of 12 hardcover catalogues is available, in addition to a small number of softcovers. 400 lots, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcover $40, deluxe hardcover with dust jacket and limitation plate $200. Eight of the 12 hardcovers are pre-ordered and the rest will go quickly, so reserve yours now. To order, contact ivan@pbagalleries.com.
Consignments welcome for PBA's Spring 2022 Comic Book sale. Top prices for Pre-Code Horror, Golden Age, Silver Age, original art and ephemera. Find out why PBA is the new fan-fave of comics auctioneers. "This is some of the best commentary I've yet seen on the quality of the content of comic books... Priceless." — R. Crumb.
