BanjerD Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) No problem buyers or HOS, please. Payment will be PayPal "Goods and Services". I might be persuaded take check or money order, and ship after it clears. Shipping is included from Japan to about anywhere, yeah even Canada! No returns on CGC books, but on raw books I will accept returns within 7 days. Regular rules apply, first "I’ll take it" in the thread prevails over PM negotiations. <------ my kudos thread in my profile Truly rare 1959 Superman hardcover manga. These are all DC redrawn stories adapted by different manga artists such as Tatsuo Yoshida (Speed Racer and G-Force), with possibly as many as 7 different artists were used. The run was originally of 14 books. Here are issues 1, 2, 3, 6, and 8. #1-3 have partial detached covers which have been taped. There is tape on one side of book # 6. The books are in GD to VG condition, there are spine pieces missing and some page tanning, but they seem to be complete. The books are about 85 pages each printed with full-color pages, and single color pages as well (cyan, magenta, green, pink). Each book is about 22x15cm and about 2cm thick. I think these stories were redrawn and adapted somewhat for content, but mostly because Japanese read manga from right to left and down. This was a joint and sanctioned publishing venture between National Comics (DC) and Shonen Gahosha. Edited February 19, 2021 by BanjerD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanjerD Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 There was a 14 book set which sold for a lot in 2014. Mandarake charges a buyer's fee and tax on their auctions, so this was over $4k! But it is a nice set. https://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemInfoEn.html?index=276897 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
