"4-10" stands for April 10 which was the on sale date the newsstand put the book out for customers to purchase. Grease pencils, graphite pencils, ink pens, and (my favorite) date stamps were all used to label the covers. So similar marking styles in same area could mean the book was from the same dealer, or just coincidence

i dont sell books, but i would swap for a similar book. i have the run from 4-57 all bought from the same stationary store in Northport Long Island. Most have the handwritten arrival date.

[Kevin.J]

Okay, I am in.

My book has a bit of history as it is from the 'Uncle Stan Collection'

A run of silver age comics sent to to the UK in the 1960's by Stan Lee, to his nephew John.

In 1999 John Lieber wrote to Stan Lee requesting his blessing and permission to sell the comics.

Stans reply can be seen in the 2nd scan.

 

I bought about 10 books from this collection back in the day.

Here is my FF #5 with the cover letter from the auction.

[The-Collector]

I wonder if anyone on the boards just won the 9.2 that went on comic link.

[Bronty]

[Beige]

Bump.

Because it deserves to be.

This is definitely one of the coolest things I've seen on here in a while, thanks for sharing it!

 

I have a much loved mid grade raw copy that I'll try to take some pics of and add to the thread.
