The creation of Edward Lytton Wheeler, Deadwood Dick was an early and important entry in post-Civil War popular U.S. fiction, focusing on real and fictional characters in the American West. This issue comes from the self-titled Deadwood Dick series from the Arthur Westbrook Company that began in 1899 and ran through 64 issues. This is part of a complete 64-issue set being offered in this auction, and like the rest, it is the single highest CGC-graded example.
