The listing, Roy Rogers & Trigger Vintage Comic Books (3) by Dell Publishing, 1956 & 1957 has ended.

Roy Rogers & Trigger comic books lot - fun nostalgia for the collector!

Winner will receive all 3 vintage comic books exactly as shown, including:

• Volume 1, #103, July 1956 ("wanted" poster cover)
• Volume 1, #105, September 1956 (horse cover)
• Volume 1, #109, January 1957 (green shirt cover)

Books include full color covers, with color comics inside (multiple stories). They were printed by Dell Publishing, Inc., New York, originally costing 10 cents per issue.

I'm not a comic book collector and I don't even want to speculate on any sort of grading or talk technical terms about condition, but I'll try to describe it in plain English - these books are aged and worn. We found them in a storage box when we moved into the house. They have been handled and read.

I've carefully flipped through them, and as far as I can tell, there are no missing pages. All pages are yellowed to some extent, and some discoloration to the paper (not the print) can be seen.

There is definite wear around all edges on all books (including little creases, small tears on the spines, etc.). There are no major rips, major tears, or major structural damage found to the interior pages. For some reason, there is a precise crease running straight down the center of the cover on all books. The staples are tarnished; they show some rust.

Aside from those notes, I've included lots of photos to give you the best idea about condition as I possibly can, but if you have further questions or would like me to shoot close-up photos of a specific area, I would be happy to do so - just ask!

Since they're not mint, I'm not sure if they hold value for the comic book collectors, but they're definitely still very enjoyable for Roy Rogers fans (or westerns fans in general) and the sake of nostalgia!

Will ship flat with each book tucked into individual page protectors.

the crease is known as a "subscription" crease..some lucky boy's parents splurged and spent $1.20 back 1956 to have an issue mailed to them [FREE S/H] every month...great auction!
