X-Factor #1 "variant" inquiry: Are there any w/ different price/issue location?

[SolitaireOne]

Ok,

 

I listed an el~cheapo BIN for an X-Factor #1 during the last $.25 listing offer and got a late inquiry re. the fact that the price and issue # are listed horizontally in the price-box vs. vertically?

 

Dear solitaireone,

 

on your issue, the price and issue number are horizontal (side by side). on my issue, the price and issue number are vertical (one on top of the other). i was just curious if this was considered a "variation" and what does it mean regarding the "value"?? thanks.

Is there such a variant? I went through the 8, or so copies I have and they all appear "normal" to me?

 

Granted, I'm aware of a slight color-variant (darker gray vs. off-purple) in the price-box area, but a price/issue location variation, really?

 

 

Every copy I've ever seen looks like this one:

 

 

 

Thoughts? Comments? Crack-pot opinions? What say you, fellow Forumites?

 

Thanks, friends... -Neal, "SolitaireOne"

Good call, S_T_U... I hadn't even considered a Direct vs. Newsstand ed. back in '86 being different in that manner. (thumbs u
