Thanks Jimbo - no under copy for sale. Although I was tempted with the one you had a few weeks ago but I knew this was on the way.

 

..... I almost owned that very book about 15 years ago when Marnin first put them on the market..... he was calling it a Fine due to the tear. I had actually sent the check on it's way when he discovered he had already promised it in a package deal. I ended up with the 5 instead. He called the 5 a Fine minus and it also received a 7.0 from CGC also ....... I wouldn't sell that one if I were you..... it might never surface again. GOD BLESS...

I probably won't make that mistake again (unless I magically end up with a better copy). Luckily for me, I sold it to a good friend who let me have it back. :)

 

The #5 is a great book too. I regret selling my old copy of that one too.

Thanks, Chris...... I've been window shopping it for a while..... couldn't resist any longer. Syd Shores :cloud9: ...... he was doing fantastic work for Atlas back then.... it still has that Timely Captain America feel.... only more refined. Nice MT 134 you have up in the Sales Forum, by the way..... GOD BLESS...

The 134 is a favorite of mine (I know you have a fondness for it also), was lucky to find a raw that graded 7.0, so the 5.5 has to go.
