It looks like this is missing from the guide:

Dear Defiant
I bought this comic twice-it is just a great comic
so surprised it is not here.
Is anyone listening.
Pretty please..

PS-I really rely on the guide
so do my other friends who I speak with
it is frustrating when the old classics get omitted
and in my humble belief some of the new stuff gets premier treatment.
Again-In my belief -the old classics will far surpass the newer stuff-
for one thing there is real rarity in the classics
some are in under 50 in existence
some are so rare they cd be called unique.
so why not be as vigilant in adding them as you are with the current comics?

and by the way
the prices listed on this site for Golden age are out of step with the current market.

Dear KDS
I know price
my problem is where is it listed here?
I do not want to add 25000 comics into a new site
I will be too old to accomplish
wd need 2 lives.
Maybe 3...

I added this volume and the1949-1950 volumes to the database... http://comicspriceguide.com/titles/treasury-of-comics-a/xousn
The most useful information I found was at the Grand Comic Database... https://www.comics.org/series/17997. I also found a few on e-Bay, both for sale and in the sold section. I didn't see anything above a good condition... in fact, most of them were well-worn books. Regardless of the condition, this book would be a great addition to anyone's collection.
Thank-you for your patience.
Jesse

Dear Jesse
I take back all the insensitive messages I have written above.
You have redeemed yourself.
BRAVO.
I checked and see only about 13 sold in the last 13 years-
highest was FN and a VG+
The rest were GD or Fair.
I have 2 of these great books-poor shape-
but really really rare and almost never in good condition.
Hey --to be fair -they are almost older than me..
Thanks
