I've been a member of the boards for almost a decade and the total amount of business I've conducted here is deep into the five-figure range, both as a seller and buyer, with several books individually priced in the deep four-figure range. My kudos can be found by going HERE.

I look forward to doing business with you!

FOR SALE - Blue Circle 6 - CGC Universal Grade of 4.0 (Very Good) with Cream to Off-white pages. 

Gerber rarity index - 8 (RARE - estimated 11-20 copies). Special notation: may not exist

There are four on the census. This affordable copy is the lowest graded. 

Interesting book. I have copied and pasted the following information directly from Mycomicshop.com

"Contents do not match cover. The sixth issue of this run consisted of a new cover used to recover different remaindered comics dating from the late 1940's to early 1950's and several variations exist. This variation contains the remaindered comic - Martin Kane - Private Eye #nn - and it was re-covered by the publisher, Rural, without page 1 of the first story. This was probably intended to be the third issue of the Martin Kane (1950 Fox) series, but it was never published. It includes the following Martin Kane stories: "Case of the Royal Rubies", "Ballad of Death", & "The King of Blackmail", plus a 2 page detective text story." MCS 

I hope the pics turned out okay. I'm too lazy to hook up my scanner after moving my computer to the other side of the house. Isn't that sad?

I got a good deal on the Berk copy earlier today, so I'm glad to pass an ultra-cool book along for an affordable price. 

Thanks for looking everyone, and thanks to the buyer!

Agreed! 

It is pretty stoopid rare, I have to say I was tempted to keep it along with the upgrade but...bah.
