Collector's Notes

CGC 7.5 · OW/W pages

A solid mid-grade copy. A healthy census of 53.

CGC census: 7 graded at 7.5 · 18 graded higher · 53 total · avg 6.74 (CGC Universal label)

The run’s most unforgiving black cover — it shows every flaw — carries Lon Chaney Sr.’s unmasked Erik, painted against the dark; Warren brought the image back on the 1969 annual and again on Issue #171. Inside, Robert Bloch’s original story “The Clown at Midnite” gives Issue #16 a place in Bloch bibliographies.
