Owner's Description

Super Circus featuring Mary Hartline 3/54 File Copy First of three Super Circus Four Colors. Based on the 1952-55 version of the ABC TV series "Super Circus."

Painted background cover with photos; Mary Hartline (photo); Claude Kirchner (photo); Cliffy the Clown (as played by Clifford Soubier, photo); Nicky the Clown (as played by Nicky Francis, photo); Scampy the Clown (as played by Sandy Dobritsch, photo)

Pencils & Inks: Vernon Greene; H. R. McBride; ? (assist)

This is the single best of just three issues graded to date. 12/12. My personal experience is that this is a tough book to find in any kind of higher grade. I originally bought this ungraded from Heritage Auctions.
