JOHN G. FANTUCCHIO PEDIGREE:
Fantucchio was a well-known artist in '60s fandom, drawing covers for RBCC and the Comic Buyers Guide (including the #1 cover), and even worked as an illustrator for the CIA from 1963 to 1988. During this time he amassed full runs of Marvel, DC, Gold Key, Charlton, ACG and Dell, among others, keeping them locked away and untouched, which resulted in uniformly high grades and near perfect cover inks. After his passing in 2016, the family auctioned the collection through Comiclink. Even though the books have no distinctive markings, many were CGC graded.
There are 4 graded copies of this issue. I’ve noticed on this slab they have listed Archie as the publisher, but on all the other slabs the publisher is listed as Radio.
I know information on comics changes all the time concerning artists and writers and such but there seems to be a some inconsistent listing of information on the slabs concerning some details such as character appearance, artists, writers, and as above, publishers.
