June, 1947 This one-shot's back cover touted features on Ace Harlem, Sugarfoot, and Snakeoil in the following issue, which, alas, never was published. And apparently not many of this issue, a 15-cent oddity, were published; Gerber gives the book an almost unheard of rating of 9 ("very rare"). To further enhance the allure, Overstreet advises the book is "seldom found in fine or mint condition; many copies have brown pages." To date, CGC hasn't certified a copy with a grade higher than 7.5.
History
All-Negro Comics, Inc was started by Orrin C. Evans with partners Harry Saylor, Bill Driscoll, and a few others. He hoped to address the absence of black heroes in popular culture and to set "high moral and educational standards." Although they had great ambitions, they were only able to publish one issue of All-Negro Comics. A second issue was planned and artwork made for the comic, but the publishers could not find enough vendors willing to sell their comics and they soon folded.
