THE AMAZING FANTASY #15 CLUB 39 39

[blazingbob]

The prettiest one in the group is the 9.2 date stamped "5-31". It has killer yellow letters and grays. Anyone knows who it belongs to?

I don't know who owns it now. But Tom Brulato sold it to Bob Storms in the early 2000s. And in 2009 it sold on Pedigree Comics.

 

Yes I am reminded how pretty it looks every time I go by the CGC booth at shows.

 

I should get a check for that huge sign with the AF #15 on it.

The front is awesome for the grade.

What's holding it back is a coffee stain on the back.

Will post a back cover picture.

Could be Gator's Coke Zero.

When I saw it at Pedigree it was in this label. Probably a resub somewhere along the lines.

 

Serial number stayed the same between old and new labels. It was probably just a reholder.

What would be a good price to pay for a slabbed coverless AF 15 NG 0.5?

 

Comic is 100% whole and in tact. Only note on label is "coverless"

[Knightsofold]

Is there a price difference in Stan Lee signed slabbed books vs Non signed slabbed books?

 

Thanks.

yes

I think the premium for a signed copy is slight and may even possibly be negative. Not much doubt that there are some buyers who find the signature a turnoff. Placement also matters, I think.

 

If I were contemplating getting Stan to sign at this point, I would only do so on a low-grade copy.

I don't think I've ever seen a Stan Lee yellow label sell for even or less than a blue label. At the minimum would expect the up-charge for what he charges for signature.

Poking around on GPA I found some examples of SS books that seemed to go for less than a non-SS copy in the same grade that sold around the same time. Others seemed to sell for a bit more. But ... there can be many other differences between two copies that can account for the price difference.

 

There are some people who like the idea of a Stan sig on this book and other who don't, either because they believe it mars the book or because he has signed so many books that his signature is devalued.

 

I would certainly not take the risk of getting his sig on a mid-grade copy or above unless I intended to keep the book in my collection.

[s14roller]

Agree, especially on SA books, it's probably a bit harder to tell because the prices can swing so much from example to example. On bronze keys, it does seem to be fairly consistent that it's an upcharge for the certified sig.

This CGC 5.5 AF15 with cream to off white pages just sold on Heritage for almost 29 000$.
