GA With Less Than Ten Copies in the CGC Census
31 31

2,844 posts in this topic

If anyone is interested.... As of today, there are 23,038 comics on the CGC census with at least 1, but no more than 9 graded copies with a Universal holder whose issue data is within 1938-1955.

I hold an API key, so querying can be a lot of fun for a geek like me.

In case anyone wants to verify, here's a couple samples from an assembled spreadsheet (I'm not sure I have "permission" to post the entire data set - sorry).

Data goes: Title, Issue, Year, Total Graded

Note: I didn't capture variant names in this data... Ex: Action #28 below represents the sole 15 cent variant on the census.

Interesting.  Shows how few DCs in high grade have survived from the late 1940s and early 1950s.  I'm sure there are enough raw copies of those Action issues to push the census number way up there, but I would guess that the total in high grade would still be quite low.

Only one likely to ever be certified 50/50 chance (since there are only 2 known copies I’m told)

Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing. I can't find this documented anywhere. Any chance I can get a scan from you?
