THE SAGINAW COLLECTION

Hailing from Saginaw Michigan, this original owner collections features complete runs of most major Marvel Titles in astonishing condition. Once collectors get their hands on these ultra high grade books, they will be amazed by the vivid deep colors on the covers and the white interior pages. When we first held these books, it became clear that this is what silver age marvels looked like the day they hit the newsstand. A young man bought everyone of these stunning comics from the same newsstand from 14 years old to 35 years old any read them once carefully and placed them inside plastic in groups of 10 and wrapped them tight. We had the honor of being the ones to open them this year. These early Marvels have not seen the light of day for almost 50 years. Unlike some of the other great Silver Age pedigree collections, the Saginaw collection will be offered on EBAY exclusively with No Reserve.

Amazing Fantasy #15 CGC 8.5 White Origin & 1st Amazing Spider-Man KEY HIGH GRADE

Hold on to your seats, we have a stunning fresh to market Saginaw copy of the Holy Grail of silver age comics, Amazing Fantasy #15. The deep and bold colors and gloss will simply blow you away. Remember, this copy has been sealed away from light since the 1960s and not taken out even once. The pages are BONE WHITE and the overall structure is in the near mint range. Some very minor, tiny stress lines and a light crease near the bottom edge are what pull this copy down just a bit. Bidding is sure to be fast and furious on this original owner beast. Origin and 1st appearance of Spider-Man (Peter Parker). 1st appearance of Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Stan Lee story. Steve Ditko art. Jack Kirby cover. Serial number 1054830001

CGC VF/NM 9.0
(Marvel Publications – March, 1963)

Completely Unrestored except for minor cover clean

This Gem received the most minor of all restoration notes.

A simple cover clean. That is it.

There was a light dust shadow on the back cover and it was only partly removed. It did not improve the grade at all, so it is not really restoration. This is a Major KEY issue in fabulous original shape other than the very minor cover clean.

Classic cover by Steve Ditko and Jack Kirby

Interior art by Steve Ditko

Origin of The Spider-Man!

1st Chameleon – Fantastic Four too!

About the condition:
This is an amazing Super High grade example, with deep color strike, full gloss, and cream to off-White pages.

Please look at the pictures to see the grade and defects.

You thought I was going to start somewhere else? I don't care what anyone else thinks… To me this page is the best piece of comic art from the 1980s I've ever seen for sale and is one of the best possible pages from the entire decade. Simply amazing.
