That's a nice 9d JIM #58 Rommbu!

These pre-hero pence Marvels are getting really hard to find now, especially in high grade. TTA #28 and JIM #74 aren't especially rare as you say, but they're all rare now so they kind of are if that makes sense. 

Good luck in the hunt - I've had a check in the usual online places without success -  eBay UK is your best bet 

 

Yeah, I know all the pence variants are hard to find, especially the early Atlas/Marvels. I am fully aware that it may cause me some trouble obtaining these two issues. I actually had the chance of buying JIM 74 once. It was for sale a long time. But I wasn´t aware of its scarcity so I chose a cent instead. Damn. Well I guess every collector has his regrets.

Thank you!

I usually do my bidding in real time but the auction was slated to go way past midnight so I just set my proxy bids and woke up this morning to find out that I won TTA #1 and #4 but came in second place on TOS #1, 5, and 24.

Am I remembering correctly that TTA #4 was considered hard to find?

First of all, congrats with the 2 very nice books. It still puzzles me a bit, how the TTA 4 can be in 7.0, considering the diagonal crease? - and yes TTA 4 is a tough one. Congrats.

Nice Pence edition, colours are excellent! (I think I'm supposed to put the "u" in there when talking about Pence editions).

Lets make this a double X-rated night:

Thanks. You also have a nice 8.5 there yourself. I am collecting both cent and pence pre hero Marvel/Atlas comics from 1959 and forth. 
I am only missing Tales to astonish 28 pence and Journey into mystery 74 pence . Not rarer than the other pence variants, I just haven´t found them yet. So if anyone out there have a spare copy, please let me know.
