Finally went through these and it was a half-win! A few pages of the backups in Detective 258 and 265 were missing, but the Batman and Robin stories were fully intact. Not bad for a pair of 50 cent readers!

Picked these up at the show for 50 cents each because they said they were missing pages. I haven’t gone through yet to see how many or if they affect the story too much.
Silver age copies of Detective Comics with Carmine Infantino art, one of which is the first Cluemaster. Two copies of Detective Comics from the Silver Age - “Prisoners of the Giant Robots” and “Batman’s First Case.”

What a strange time to be living through that has simultaneously made me care so little for some things and so fervently for others.

I'll be at Uticon this weekend at Mohawk Valley Community College - a great little one-day show that benefits the American Cancer Society.
