What the heck, might as well start bidding at $10 on each of the other 3 to get the ball rolling also.  :)

Detective Comics #313, CR/OW, 3.0 $15

Book is complete.  Centerfold is detached at the bottom staple.  Staples are rusty and there is a little rust migration.

The cover has good color, but not much gloss due to the staining.  Despite the issues, book sits flat and tight.

America's Best Comics #19, 2.0 $225

Book sits mostly flat and is complete, is missing the bottom staple and is the only one of the four with just a bit of spine roll/foxing.  Cover and center wraps are still attached to the top staple.  Remaining staple is rusty, but rust propogation around the staple areas is limited.

Book has some damage along the bottom side.  There is a 3/4" or so tear that goes through about half of the book that was repaired with tape on some of the interior pages.  However, the repairs were on the bottom edge and mostly in the margin.  Also, the tape is still clear, so it barely affects any of the story.

There is what looks like a water stain along the top edge on some of the interior pages, but it doesn't affect the story.  The cover has almost no gloss, but still has good color.  This book isn't quite as supple as the others, but is still in good shape.
