Chaos City comics - Mystery Inc, 1963

I've looked before (here to be precise) about some rare Martha Washington goes to war variants that were produced by Chaos City comics (in St Albans). Turns out these weren't the only comics they produced...

There was their AIDS awareness comic - here

They also produced some of their own variants of the Mystery Inc, 1963 comic

According to an article on page 15 of the November 1993 issue of Comics International was limited to a print run of...

a). 500 Gold editions (priced at £7.95)

b). 150 Platinum editions (priced at a staggering £29.95)

c). from the test run 20 incredibly rare Bronze editions

You can find copies of the gold edition quite easily on ebay (here for instance) 

You can see the platinum copy here

but no sign of the Bronze editions yet.
