Comics historians divide the history of American comic books into ages. These eras include the Golden Age (1938-1950), the Silver Age (1956-1970), the Bronze Age (1970-1985), and the Modern Age (1985-Present).
Here again I will use the word "most" as most golden age comic books are 7.25-7.375" wide and 10.25" tall however a fair amount of them are as small as 6.75" wide. To accommodate most of the golden age size books we offer the Golden Age Comic Book Frame which has a front window opening of 7.5" wide by 10.125" tall.
