Ozonetv Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 ok- its not a real one, its a Golden Record Reprint. Close but no cigar, but happy to have it. I dont have more pix of the inside, but staples are nice and clean...love to hear your thoughts. Needs a clean and press, tho doubt the ink spots can be removed...

comicginger1789 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Is this reprint the first complete unabridged reprint of FF #1? Just curious. As for a grade, 5.5-6.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for a grade, 5.5-6.0 I believe you are correct: The Fantastic Four Golden Record Reprint (28-pages, full-color, standard comic format) was produced in 1966 and reprints Fantastic Four #1. Although the reprint, at first glance, looks like the original, there are differences. There is no cover price on the reprint, and the back cover, as well as the inside covers, promote the Golden Record LP series of which the Fantastic Four #1 is a part. The four Marvel Golden Record LPs came with a reprint comic, and each originally sold for $2.49 (record and and comic together).

As for a grade, 5.5-6.0 yeah- its actually a cool book. It came out just 5 years after the original. In a 9.8 it could be worth upwards of 5k. Theres a JIM 83, ASM 1 and Avengers 4.

Mr. Zipper Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) 5.5 before the press and 5.5 after the press. It may "look nicer," but pressing is not going to magically make the two long diagonal creases go away and it won't grade higher because of them.
