Classics Illustrated #46 ~ Adapts Robert Louis Stevenson's The Master of Ballantrae. Illustrated by Lawrence Dresser, adapted by Ken Fitch. Cover art by Enrique Alcatena. Essay by Beth Nachison. Acclaim Books, June 1997. It is hard to believe that these issues are over fifteen years old! An interesting addition to Classics Illustrated history that has been largely overlooked by collectors. This copy is fine/very fine with light edge and spine wear.
Digest format is not very popular with collectors. Somebody should have told the folks at Acclaim Books that before they launched their 1997 Classics Illustrated series. As it was, the series didn't sell well and was cancelled after 62 issues. Of significance, it did add three new issues to the Classics Illustrated canon. Because of their dismal sales, this series is getting difficult to find.
I'm a fairly conservative grader. Since comic book grading is pretty subjective, please base your bid on my scan of the comic and make up your own mind about the value.
