It's a reprint

As you can see from the date inside the front cover, the mini comic that you found is not from 1963. It is a 1990 miniature reprint of Amazing Spider-man #1, which was published originally in 1963.

Reprint.

I know it's a reprint, it's 1990 under licence from Marvel. Anyone else have it? Where'd it come from?

It clearly says 1990 in the second picture. I think I have this one, is it much smaller than a regular comic?

Yeah, Where'd it come from?

If you knew it was a reprint, why does your header say 1963 ??!!

The only reprints of ASM #1 worth money are the Golden Record ones from the mid 60's. In the 90s and until now, they reprinted this issue many times in many formats.

Sorry to burst your bubble but you did not hit the mother lode. This is a reprint from Running Press (Smaller than Digest size, measures 6+1/4” tall by 4+1/4”across. Supplement to the Book Start Collecting Comic Books)

Assuming from your (blurry) pic it is no better than a 9.0 here are the values from Comic Book Price Gide. I couldn't find it on Go Collect but this should give you a general idea of value. This is a dollar bin book at best...
