Print run of 2,000 - Creed #1 from Hall of Heroes. 1 at 9.8 on census (listed at $1k on ebay), 2 at 9.4 - including mine - which I subbed about a decade ago, looks like 9.6 by today's standards.

I've never heard of this book, but here you go. $22.50 shipped to your house.

What about these two? The Spider-Man was mail order, and so was the Teknophage. And the mailing of Teknophage was in plain manila envelopes like a magazine so most of them were creased down the middle of the metal front cover.

I've seen that Spidey book in high grade by the handfuls at shows.

I've never seen the other book that I can remember.

 

 

I figured the Spidey was distributed AFTER they had a bunch left over from the mail order.., and Tekno Comics did not last long, but it seems to be a real steel cover-- much thicker than the foil covers on anything else. It will actually bend and hold a crease. I have 3- the other two were damaged in shipping.

I got the Unicef Spidey book in the mail too. It was shipped in a thin clear plastic bag, and by an absolute miracle arrived with only one stress mark. I am convinced that all the mail damage I have gotten to subsequent books was due to the karmic balancing of the scales based off that Spidey. lol

 

Can't be too many of these around. I've never seen a third printing before. My brother just picked it up in a collection.
