"Superman #1-10 (1939-1941) CGC Avg. 7.0 – An Awesome Collection!!!

VigilanteComics Presents an incredible collection of all CGC graded Golden Age Superman issues from #1 to 10. This
collection has some super gems in it! In addition to the tough to find first few issues of this collection it also features:

· 1st appearance of Clark’s boss, Perry White (to be featured in the upcoming movie)

· 2nd and 3rd appearances of Lex Luthor (with red hair) in issue #4

· 1st appearance of the real Lex Luthor (mainly the one without the hair!) in issue #10

· High grade gems such as the 3rd Highest Graded Copy of Superman #7 (with only 2 higher; 1 in 9.0 and 1 in 9.2)

This collection is a treasure to keep for years to come and a sure fire investment safe from the ups and downs of today’s
stock market!!!

Note about Superman #1:
The Superman #1 in this collection was restored by conservation expert Matt Nelson and is vastly under-graded in my opinion.
As you will see from the images below, the worksheet is included detailing the work performed on this copy of Superman #1
with a final grade given by Matt of a FN+ 6.5. Take a good look at the images of this book and tell me you don’t disagree
with CGC’s assessment of a 5.5, because I certainly do! This book has great color, near perfect edges, no major flaws of
any kind, an awesome spine (image included) and an overall condition that if not in this case I would at least think a 6.5 to 7.0.
Check it out and don’t hesitate to ask for additional high-res images…

Please read Terms and Conditions below prior to bidding.
