Classics Illustrated Junior #530 - The Golden Bird by the Brothers Grimm ~ Gilberton, 1968. Typical saddle-stitched American comic book. 25¢ cover price. Dik Browne cover, interior artist unknown. A bit of bending, light wear. Reorder form on back cover marked, light to moderate wear. This copy is very good/fine.

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.
