Golden Age Comic The Vault of Horror #21, from EC, published in 1951. This item is in nice shape, some cover wear, a few wrinkles, some edge and corner wear, but no major tears. Staples are a little to the front. Cover still has nice finish. There is a short piece of tape on the upper front corner. Not sure why, it doesn't appear to be covering a tear or other damage.

Back cover is even nicer. Inside front cover has "GA" initials in pencil. Inside is even nicer, with minimal wear, minimal yellowing. No missing pages or major defects. A few short tears off the staples. A single number written in pencil above each story (4). There are two short pieces of yellowed tape at the staple area touching front inside cover and first page. No mildew or smoke odor.
