LOT OF1 VINTAGE COMIC BOOK: CONTACT COMICS#4 CGC 5.5 With Cream To Off-White Pages, From Late 1944 As The January, 1945, War-Themed Comic From Aviation Press. The Finest Copy Ever Graded By CGC Is The Coveted 8.0 Promise Pedigree Copy That Went For $6.6K In Recent Years, And Presentable Intact Copies Besides That Gem Are Few And Far Between; So This Glorious \"Original Owner Copy\" Is A Real Treasure. I Bought It From The Heir Of The Original Newsstand Purchaser, A Small But Eye-Popping Little Mid-Forties Comic Collection In Phoenix That I Lucked On To Back In 2004, And The Small Pile Of Unrelated Ten-Centers Was So Bright, Clean And Fresh That I \"Cherry Picked\" This Comic And A Few Others Into My Own Personal Collection.
This Displays One Of L.B. Cole\'s Classic Wartime Aviation Covers With American Fighters Attacking The Japanese Bomber. The Black Venus Superhero Story Was Drawn By The Masterful L.B. Cole Himself, And Since This Was 1944 It Predictably Has Spy & Espionage Themes, And Humiliates Nippon. The \"Story Of The Priceless Paintings\" Drawn By The Renowned Rudy Palais Features The Hero Golden Eagle. The DC Comics Legend Carmine Infantino Drew The \"No Ice Today\" Airplane De-Icing Story. The Story Drawn By George Appel Stars Tommy Tomahawk. Tom Van Buren Drew The \"Forecast For The Future\", Speculating About How Aircraft May Look In The Coming Years. Other Stories Include \"Camera Men Of The Clouds\", \"Corsair\", And \"Airborne\". Most Stories Include Airplanes In Thrilling Action.
