I thought for sure the Invaders 1 CGC 9.8w was yours. I was wrong again

 

Invaders Annual 1 this time.
Last Invaders 1 I listed (9.6) was a few years back.

More Picture Frame trivia, the Marvel 'Circle 20' picture frames.

At the end of 1971, when Marvel transitioned their books from giants back to regular size and the cover prices from 25 to 20 cents, the latter was placed in a circle for one month only.  Most 'circle 20s', but not all, have December, 1971 cover dates.  Afterwards, the cover price was designed into a box as part of the Marvel Comics Group banner, where it would stay for the remainder of the picture frame design era.

Another thing worth mentioning, is that the actual MCG Banner itself debuted with the 25c PFs.

Auctions start closing tomorrow night!

 

Notable books ending tomorrow night include:

DD 130 CGC 9.8w (1 of 4)

FF 116 CGC 9.6 oww

Amazing Adventures CGC 9.2 oww

ASM 147 CGC 9.8 oww

Sweet looking books, Thomas. What's your grade on the MCG #39?

Thanks.

Looks to be a possible 9.2, maybe an outside shot at a 9.4. Needs a little attention, but nothing @joeypost can’t handle.
 

Wish it could go higher, but I’ll take a 9.2 of this book any day.

Lots of sweet (and tough to find in high grade) books there, Thomas. The census numbers with those romance books rarely move at all.

Thanks Barton!

I’m always on the lookout. Whiffed a couple grades, but that seems to be par for the course for me nowadays. 
 

Final 

Rest of the books start closing tomorrow and Friday night, then finishes up Mon-Wed next week.

Thanks everyone for looking!

Good luck to those bidding!

 

Been so long ago I can’t really remember.
Pretty sure I posted there once or twice. Would have been the same username.

Now that I see these again after posting, isn't Ms Marvel a newsstand? No designation on label.....

Direct Editions didn’t start until 1979. Before then, everything is considered newsstand by default. No designation needed.
