Vacation Parade #1

 

Barks! Really solid book, glossy, presents awesome. Only thing is some silverfish had a little bit of a meal on about maybe 10 - 20% the spine. Really solid book though. Tough book to grade but I'd call it a VG/FN or so.

 

Sorry about the edge being cut off, no surprises there.

 

Asking $150

Great book, great price. One of Barks' underrated classics. Any duck fan who doesn't have one should grab this one.

Shock Suspenstories 3

 

A really sharp copy. I posted it in the PGM thread a few years ago and I believe the grade ranges were from abotu 8.0 - 9.2 and I would definitely put it around 8.5 - 9.0.

 

Asking $350 SOLD

Man from UNCLE #1

 

Very solid copy! It has a red pen streak on the cover that goes through the "the". Aside from that I'd say it's a solid 8.0 - 8.5 or so. Not sure how to price this so I'm going to say...

 

Asking $150 or best offer!

Calendar Month Release Dates

 

Amazing Fantasy #15 June 5, 1962

Amazing Spider-Man #1 December 10, 1962

Amazing Spider-Man #2 February 12th, 1963

Amazing Spider-Man #3 April 9th, 1963

Amazing Spider-Man #4 June 11th, 1963

Strange Tales Annual #2 June 11th, 1963

Source: Marvel Comics Group 1961-70

 

There is no month listed in the indicia of the book. Sgt. Fury #2 (a May release) is advertised inside the book. It's probably this ad that leads to an earlier release claim. However, the annual, itself, is advertised in Amazing Spider-Man #4 (ad) and #5 (special announcements section). Source: Spider Fan Comics Blog

 

A June release date seems difficult to refute as copies with date stamps usually read June 11. I think I've seen one dated June 10 but I assume that's just an "unchanged" dealer date stamp. This would make Strange Tales Annual #2 the 6th appearance of Spider-Man, if one gives precedence to his own magazine when given the same release date.

 

CGC labels I've seen mark it as an early Spider-Man appearance or first Spider-Man crossover. Source: Heritage Archives.
