Owner's Description
ACTION COMICS #578 CGC 10.0-THE GOLDEN STATE COLLECTION
THIS COPY IS THE FIRST ACTION COMICS COPY EVER TO BE GRADED 10.0 AND IS A RARITY
The Golden State collection was amassed by a meticulous collector residing in the San Francisco area who carefully filed away his newsstand copies each month. The core of the collection ranged from the early 60s to present, but also included a very impressive run of Golden Age as well.
The owner finally decided to part with the Golden and Silver Age portions of his collection in the early 90s, and much of it entered the market through a national dealer. Unfortunately much of the Silver Age was never documented as the Golden State collection, although one can still find random CGC graded issues floating about. The average grade of this period was 9.4 and 9.6, truly amazing books.
What could possibly cause the public to turn on Superman and idolize a nobody? Craig Boldman's script and Kurt Schaffenberger's art hold the answer. Cover by Eduardo Barreto. Cover price $0.75.
