Q about Journey Into Unknown Worlds #9 0

[stock_rotation]

Anyone have a raw copy of Journey Into Unknown Worlds #9?

Does your book have an indicia? I just noticed mine does not, just a big 'ol blank space at the bottom of the inside front cover. I'm trying to determine if mine's a printing error or if it was like that for the run.

Thanks in advance!

I do. I don't have it handy right now though. I will check tonight when I get home from work. Could yours be a Canada print?

It doesn't appear to be Canadian... Book has US addresses on all the inside ads, including cover. Apologies for the crummy photos. The 3rd picture is the cover with a light behind it, just to see if there was ever anything there. Nothing!

Got home and checked my copy. Here it is. And, yes, it does have the indicia. Yours is weird. It is printed in the front cover but indicia is missing. Rare variant?

RM, you beat me by a minute.

Here's mine with the indicia as well -

They are coming out of the wood work! Retro must have the special "variant" edition. Worth of course, many times our regular copies...

Thanks for all your help, guys!

I was planning on listing it on eBay this week, but since this is an INCREDIBLY RARE VARIANT PRINTING, I will be listing it as a BIN on eBay for $1.5mm. If a boardie wants to buy it, I'll offer a generous 20% discount. Don't sleep on this deal! ONLY ONE ON EBAY LQQK!
