Archie & Friends - A Timely Tale ~ Archie Comics, October 2001. Standard American saddle-stitched comic book, smaller size, color cover and interior, 16 pages including covers. No cover price. Cover and interior art by Stan Goldberg.

Light wear, NEAR MINT. I'm generally a hard grader but comic book grading is still subjective. As always, study my scan and make up your own mind about the condition. Be sure this copy would have a place in your collection.

Vintage popular priced books, paperbacks, comic books, and magazines are subject to aging of the cheap internal paper, weakness or drying of the spine glue resulting in occasional loose pages, rusting of staples, and loss of original lamination (particularly early Dells). Previous bookseller's prices written lightly inside are typical and not considered a defect. I do not consider names written or stamped inside the book/magazine to be a serious defect but I note them if they are present. I do consider tape of any kind to be a serious defect and will only offer items with tape defects if they are particularly scarce or desirable. Previous seller's price tags may not be mentioned if unobtrusive.
