Searched for 20 years and never found a nice copy. That 9.6 is a beauty. Thanks so much! I never thought I'd even see one that nice, let alone have a chance to bid on one.

It was there that I had my first Spidey comic! My first back issue through mail order was Marvel Tales 4, it was near mint and 50 cents, although grades weren't advertised as much back then, just "VG or better".... I learned to love Ditko AND Romita simultaneously back then, as between Marvel Tales and monthly ASM, both came out on the rack.

I can't even imagine how awesome it was buying Spidey issues as they came out in the Silver Age!!!
