So weird, it kept pasting the link, not the text, I had to do them separately, lol. That's the link to verify the page count;)

Superboy #35   

Sold to Selegue

OK, color, some light overall creasing plus a sub crease (light), small crease back cover goes through 2 pages, the pages are white 
.

Book has one of those odd page set ups, the # of pages is correct, but there are 11 pages before the staple and 9 after. You can see where one of the pages on the right side was cut out and an extra fold was added at the centerfold. They had odd counts like this in the mid 40's on some DC books and a few others in 1954.

Grade is Gd/VG (3.0) bin is $50  $42

Wait, are you saying Sky's copy is better than yours? Am I to take that means early Superboy books are hard to find in low grades?

You know, I'm blushing, I NEVER noticed that...you should be...never mind;)# 36 is all yours, Jack.  I just did notice, he had a lot of "sisters".

Superboy #34

This looks like one of the classic romance covers. (1954)

17 on the census

Nice color, pages in the white/ow range (closer to white) there is a 1” cover spine split at the top and there is a little damage at the bottom of the spine. I think (hope) it's bug damage. Grade is Gd/VG (3.0)

Bin $50  $45

Superboy #30 Scarce!4 on the census

Look  familiar? Check out Jimmy Olsen 53 from 1961.

 

Pages are cream, supple, with a stain on the right edge and a noticeable  piece off the back cover. Grade is Gd- (1.8) Because of the piece off the back, the front looks better. Bin is $75

I uploaded the scans for the 2 back covers I was missing and I lowered both of those prices. The price on the #39 was a mistake, I fixed it. I got the issue # and the price confused, and then I discounted it;) 

 I should write to Jack and tell him;) 

Going to try to do an update before I leave.

I'm going to discount a few more books when I do the update, but I'm going to leave off adding percentage discounts till the listings are finished.
