Kid Colt Outlaw 45
In 1981, Steve Geppi was told about a collection near Lancaster, Pennsylvania by a broker named Birney. Birney took him to an elderly woman's home where stacks of Golden Age comics were piled throughout a room. There were about 1,000 comics in the collection, primarily from the 1941-1944 period, and contained mostly superhero comics from numerous publishers. The bulk of the books resided in personal collections for over a decade before they began appearing on the market. Their grades are among the highest of the pedigree collections and the books are easily identifiable by a cursive "P" penciled on the front covers.
Interesting pull tonight: #KidColtOutlaw 45 (Atlas, 1955), last pre-comic code issue. Cursive P on the cover looked familiar. After research, book didn’t match the bulk of the Pennsylvania Pedigree books. Black Rider backup story though!
