Item Description
Early Batman covers are some of the most visually inventive covers ever
done. This wonderful cover by Win Mortimer goes a long way to proving this idea.
In this issue, Batman and Robin are either breaking into or out of jail. There
is no way to really tell without reading the book. The yellow beam of the
spotlight cuts across both of their figures and it only serves to heighten the
sense of mystery regarding the surroundings. The entire image comes together to
serve the impression of Batman as a creature of mystery. Others that
contributed to this issue include artists Dick Sprang and Charles Paris and
featured writer Don Cameron. This issue is also notable for an appearance by the
Joker and there is also a time-travel story. The pages are off-white to white.
The book is CGC-certified VF- 7.5. There are only two copies recorded in the CGC
census with a higher grade than this issue.
