Nova Scotia CopyDetective Comics #30 contains one of the earliest appearances of the Caped Crusader, in a tale which finds him battling the fiendish Doctor Death whom he first encountered in the previous issue and had assumed was dead. The disturbing, violent, pre-code cover is a genuinely striking piece of Golden Age art, and one which we appreciatively get to admire daily on our gallery wall here in our New York City offices. As far as early Bat-books go, this one has a great story, a memorable cover from the days before Batman would become the sole focus of the book.
This copy of Detective Comics #30 comes from the respected Nova Scotia pedigree and is certified by QES for its preferred staple placement, beautiful spine, and deep green, red, and yellow color strike. There are only 40 Universal copies tracked on the CGC census, and this VF example is very close to the top of the boards with only five copies above it. The colors on this cover are incandescent, belying the 84-year vintage of this treasure, this book has all of the bells and whistles and is sure to be a hot property come auction time.
Overstreet Guide 2022 VF (8.0) value = $18,900.
