Just came across this and was intrigued. It's definitely a "variant" but of a different sort. I would have thought something like this would have been low value years ago but today's market seems to be focused on the rarity aspect (e.g. 2nd/3rd prints with low print runs have followings for that reason alone). I can't imagine anything more rare than this (and at 9.8 to boot which is sorta amazing no matter what for a 62 year old book - Gaines files excluded ) https://www.comiclink.com/auctions/i
