From the early years of the Silver Age of comics, issue No. 17 in the original run of Turok under the Dell publishing banner as a quarterly comic. September - November 1959. It features the typical painted cover that stood Turok apart from many other comics, and contains the graphic Turok stories "The Slave of the Merciless Masters" and "The Land of No Return", along with "The Land bridge" (another installment in the 'Young Earth' series) and a 1-page text story called "The Raid". It consists of 32 newsprint pages plus covers, saddle-stitched. Condition: The front cover has only a few short, minor creases from binding stress or reading, and the colors and gloss are very bright. A few small dimples appear if held to the light at an angle. There's no edgewear but the top page tips show some bumping. There are no rips, chips or tears. Back cover shows some wear, and the white areas in the color Kraft Fudgies ad have accumulated some soiling. A small water stain appears on the bottom of the back cover, near the spine. (See photos of covers.) Page tips are sharp. Slight wear at the spine ends and a slight spine roll. Page edges have darkened. The page margins are lightly toned. The pages remain supple and firm. The cover and staples are tight. Conservatively graded Fine (6.0), based on the grading standards in the 51st Edition of Overstreet (2021-2022), pp 212-215.
