Set Description:

Navy theme comic, my set name is named in keeping with civil war battles. General Grant's 1863 Vicksburg campaign saw the largest US amphibious landing of its time up until D-Day.
Sailor Sweeney is a fun 3 issue set numbering 12,13 and 14. The first 11 issues were called Navy Action and after the brief Sailor Sweeney spell they reverted back to Navy Action.
These comics are considered scarce but I don't really think so, the miniscule associated point values certainly do not reflect that. They are tough in high grade as all Atlas war are, individual issues show up on eBay every couple months and they sell, I have only seen one group of all three for sale together and these sold right away listed at $500 in fine+ condition.
