Comic books carrying CGC grades among top results in Heritage Auctions' July Comics & Comic Art Auction

The top 20 comic books sold in Heritage Auctions’ July 9-11 Comics & Comic Art Auction each carried a CGC grade. 

Leading the pack was Superman #1 (DC, 1939) CGC VG/FN 5.0 Off-white pages, which drew bids from nearly three dozen collectors before finding a new home at $360,000. One of the 10 nicest ever certified by CGC, this copy is one of just three with a 5.0 grade, and there are just seven known to carry a higher grade.
