Notes

CGC 9.4 Gaines File Copy. COA included, copy #3 of 12 found in Gaines's collection. COA is signed by William M. Gaines, Bob Overstreet and Russ Cochran.

Impact #3 Gaines File pedigree 3/12 (EC, 1955) CGC NM 9.4 Cream to off-white pages. By taking one look at these comics, it's easy to see why the Gaines File Copies are in such high demand -- these books are smoking hot. Condition is very consistent from book to book, with sharp corners, nice spines, and rich cover colors and gloss being the rule, rather than the exception. This copy is a prize waiting to be captured by some lucky collector. Overstreet 2002 NM 9.4 value = $100.
