BOOK DESCRIPTION: You are bidding on the hottest Silver Age comic in the world – Amazing Fantasy #15, the first appearance of Spiderman, 1962. This book has the famous Kirby cover with Ditko art and is original and "UNRESTORED" being graded by CGC at 5.5 with cream to off-white pages in a blue label case.
The color is magnificent and overall appeal is outstanding with only 1 small chip at the bottom edge keeping this book from being ranked a 6 to 6.5.
These unrestored grades are becoming increasingly difficult to find, usually having been restored or are in poor condition if original. A CGC 7.0 sold for $22,000 on 3/16/08 – item # 170199757596.
Bid with confidence knowing my feedback speaks for itself. Good luck and happy bidding.
*An interesting note – I have been tracking this comic as well as Mantle 1952 rookie cards for some time. It seems that both move at a different pace than other like rare book/cards do within the market, this is due to both reflecting an investment premium. Since they are both considered "blue chip" investments, they will move at an accelerated rate, thus the return will always be superior. Remember, you will never lose with blue chip investments and this comic will always hedge a poor economy and beat the return of any indivdual security.
