    A great find so far, hope to find another soon

    The action comics #251 has a Supergirl ad inside and is somewhat considered supergirls' first appearance, issue #252 is her first actual appearance in comics. Getting the issue #251 was an awesome find, now I'm looking for another issue for a fellow collector, thank you for helping me find the first one at a reasonable price.
