The Interstate Co. operated restaurants, lunch rooms and newsstands in bus and railroad stations. With a captive market, they were able to jack up prices on many items above what one would expect to pay elsewhere, hence the 15¢ stamp on what was a 10¢ comic. 

Interesting.  But the stamps do not indicate the individual stop?  Or is that at the bottom of the seal, that I can not really read?

IS THIS TOMORROW? #nn in 6.5/7.0. Strong, fresh copy of this classic... I've owned 4 or 5 copies over the years and this is the nicest. Vibrant color strike; a few minor creases and scuffs on the back.

CHALLENGE OF THE UNKNOWN #6 in 1.8. You know, Mother's Day is right around the corner. Why not show Mom you care with a Challenge of the Unknown #6? Low grade copy; cover wrap is detached at staples; staples are rusted with some transfer stain to pages but Mom is cool with all that. The main image looks great and glossy with strong colors. Complete with offwhite pages.

$160
