An Original Vintage Comic Book (measures 7" x 10 1/4" [18 x 26 cm]) (Learn More)

Crime Does Not Pay is a crime thriller comic book series published between 1942 and 1955 by Lev Gleason Publications. The series recounted the deeds of gangsters such as Baby Face Nelson and Machine Gun Kelly, often in ultra gory detail, and was the first non-humor comic to rival superhero comics in sales, and by the early 1950s, publisher Lev Gleason turned his few comic books into a publishing empire! There are those who think that a major factor in the creation of the Comics Code was specifically to put Lev Gleason and Bill Gaines (publisher of EC Comics) out of business, and if so, they succeeded! Note that the numbering continues from Silver Streak Comics (to save money on postal regulations), so the very first issue is #22.

Condition: fair to good. There is a tear in the bottom left of the cover that was repaired with clear tape from the inside of the cover.
